The windpipe is a tube inside your neck that helps air get to your lungs.
It is also called the trachea. When you breathe in, air moves through the windpipe. When you breathe out, air moves back out the same way. The windpipe is lined with tissue that helps catch dust and germs. It starts below your voice box and goes down to the chest, where it splits into two smaller airways.
