Maybe inhaled crisp-piece

Inhaled a little crisp-piece. Had a cough-attack. No further symptoms. Yet didnt feel the crisp-piece being coughed out. Im afraid the piece may be in the lung. What is the advice for further action?

Aspiration of food is concerning. Please see your PCP and a pulmonologist ASAP. You will need labs, imaging and probably bronchoscopy done.
