Karen fudge Posted July 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Hi did anyone have throat irritation afterwards . I wasn’t intubated but not sure as they cut through the muscle if that’s causing my throat to be irritated .. also I guess I’m sore bruised up to be expected.. thanks .

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted July 5, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 @Karen fudge I am sorry you are sore. I found it helpful to sleep in a recliner the first couple of nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen fudge Posted July 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Hey Thanks for keeping intouch. I think my problem was I had laryngitis 3 days prior to surgery . Post op it got worse . I guess cutting behind the ear and through the muscle. The side of my neck was stiff and had a post nasal drip to boot . I took off work expected to go back on Monday but just felt out of it and. It with it. Going back tomorrow just have to take it easy . Been a week already .. Thanks karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
