I water-fasted for 3 days and when I broke my fast, my mouth pretty rapidly started hurting when I was eating. Not topographically, it feels more like muscle pain in the chewing and swallowing muscles (mostly the back of my tongue and side of jaws).

I ate a couple of dried plums mashed in water, and a boiled egg, so nothing particularly chewy. Has this happened to anyone else or you have any idea why?

I have juice-fasted before and never had this issue. This was my first water fast.
