Respuesta :

Answer:

First, ask "are you choking?". If yes, perform an abdominal thrust. If no, don't.

Explanation:

Brainliest, please :)

A, you should preform an abdominal thrust. You should do this because his airways are blocked(holding his throat and not coughing). By doing this, his airways will open again. However, age plays a big factor as well. So you should look at the age, and then decide whether to do an abdominal thrust or a chest thrust.
