Hurts to swallow, eat, and talk. Not sore throat?!


Question: Hurts to swallow, eat, and talk. Not sore throat?
For a couple days, I had a pain on the left side of my throat. It felt like my tongue was swollen at the back on the left side. It ached for a while, and there was a sharp pain when I swallowed, moved my tongue to either side, or sometimes when I spoke. It would go last for hours, go away for a little while, and then come back again. This morning when I woke up, the pain has gotten worse and it feels like my whole throat is swollen. It's a little difficult to talk, and when i put slight pressure under my throat, it hurts.

It's really painful and I really want to know what it is, and if it will go away, or if I should be concerned.

Answers:

Tight neck muscles will press into your throat with enough pressure to cause those pains. Freeing up your neck muscles should get rid of the pains for you and here's how to free them up:
Neck
Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about one minute, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds.
For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.



You should be concerned....go see you docs ASAP. Do not leave it to chance it could be minor
but its best to get checked out. It could be many different things on what you say.
Get checked out.
