Answer

What should parents do if a child swallows something and starts choking in Mallorca?

Call emergency services immediately and start basic first aid if you know how. In a choking situation, every second matters, so staying calm and getting help fast is the most important step. If other people are nearby, ask someone to call for an ambulance while you stay with the child.
