Mr. Ye, the girl's father, said that he and his lover were working in other places at the time of the incident, his grandparents were out for a walk, and his daughter and nephew were at home.
Because her daughter is young and playful, she throws coins into her mouth when she raises her head. After spitting out the coin, the daughter continued to cough and sat on the sofa, while the nephew kept asking about her sister's health.
"If the esophagus is blocked after the throat is stuck in a foreign body, it will cause serious consequences within two minutes, and I am afraid of it now." Mr. Ye said, "Fortunately, my nephew, who knew how to know first aid at that time, was at home and saved my daughter in a short period of time, which is very grateful. ”
Mr. Ye learned that the "Heimlich First Aid Method" was learned by his nephew through a short video platform and used it for the first time in reality. He hopes that this matter will attract everyone's attention, and the "Heimlich First Aid Method" should also be learned by the whole people, so that people can save themselves at critical moments.

The left hand is pressed against the right fist, and the upward and inward rapid impact 6-10 times increases the pressure in the chest cavity and helps the foreign body to be discharged.
