In a severe allergic reaction, a person's tongue can swell up, effectively blocking the air passageways. an emergency procedure can be performed to restore airflow. basically, a hole is cut into the passageways below the blockage to allow air to flow into the lungs. what passageway would be best for the surgical hole?

Hi there!

I am guessing the best place for the surgical hole to be cut, might be towards the center of the front of the neck. This should only be performed in a SERIOUS situation because of how dangerous it is. Cutting a small hole in the neck would help the person to breathe again.

Hope this helps! Tell me if i have no idea what i am talking about, thanks!
