Aspiration refers to the inhalation of a foreign substance into the airway and lower respiratory tract. Respiratory symptoms may occur after aspiration, depending on the amount of foreign substance, the consistency of the substance (a hard food, a liquid, an oil, or even acid from the stomach), the pH of the substance (how acidic or basic a substance is), the frequency of the aspiration, and the reaction of the foreign substance.
