I think we need the verb clavar.

English: Stick you in the throat. Se clava en la garganta.

.............Stuck in the throat. ... Clavado en la garganta.

Sting = picar ....Se pica.......Picado en la garganta.

Stung.......................................................

Here in the USA, I think we would tend to say:

Fish tastes delicious, but, every time you eat it, you run the risk of getting a bone stuck in your throat.

.

More common would be:

Fish tastes delicious, but, whenever you eat it, you could get a bone stuck in your throat.

Ten cuidado o se te clavará una espina en la garganta!.

El pescado sabe delicioso/ riquisimo, pero cada vez que lo comes corres el riesgo de clavarte una espina en la garganta

1.- correr el riesgo = take the risk. 2.- delicious = delicioso / rico / riquisimo
