Abstrakt: The spectrum of presentation of airway foreign body can vary from having mild symptoms to sudden death. Smaller foreign body in distal airways, especially if the patient is unaware of aspiration can result in chronic symptoms mimicking asthma. Clove, has been used traditionally for its medicinal values and commonly used as a cough remedy. In this case series, we report four cases of this unusual airway foreign body which were essentially consumed with an intention to prevent cough, but unfortunately became the reason for their cough.
