We present an interesting case of tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration. A 29-year-old healthy female, with no history of pulmonary disease, presented on multiple occasions to healthcare providers with wheezing and cough. She was repeatedly diagnosed and treated for asthma with acute exacerbations. Upon further evaluation, the patient was subsequently found to have a tracheobronchial foreign body causing her symptoms. This case report highlights a clinical approach to wheezing illnesses and reviews the diagnosis and management of tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration.
