I was eating this small smoked fish with a lot of tiny bones when suddenly I felt something was stuck in my throat.
I drank a lot of water to wash it down but nothing happened.
I took big bites of a bread and swallowed them without chewing much, a bit later, I could not feel anymore the fishbone in my throat. it is more bearable now because all i can feel now is this light presence of it.
has this ever happened to you?

I did have this experience and it is not only once.
I have been told that swollen a small portion of cooked rice would solve the problem when I first encountered the first time. We only can swollen without chewing the rice otherwise it will not have the force to pull the bone stick on our throat. It works every time I have this careless issue.

Filipino tradition is swallowing small pieces of banana and water, I'm not sure how effective that is.

Water have no effect on the fish bone. It's good that you swallowed a solid.
