Alcohol?

Hi, I’m currently almost 3 weeks post op and i was wondering when it would be okay to drink alcohol again?

My best friend is having a birthday party this Friday and i would love to have a drink or two, i’m not thinking about getting drunk or anything maybe just a bit of wine, i’m just kind of scared it will burn or cause a bleed(i didn’t have any bleeding issues through my recovery though).

Day 14

Hi, i’m currently on day 14 post op and i have a few questions.

Most of the experiences ive heard have been that after day 14 or even earlier everything went back to normal, but i still have some weird stringy white stuff where the scabs used to be… its not much of it but it bothers me and theres still some pain when i swallow. My voice is still kinda funny and my uvula is still pretty swollen.

Did anyone else have the same thing? if so when does it go away and when will i feel completely normal again i’m getting kinda tired of this.

voice changes?

Hi, so i’m currently 9/10 days post op and i was wondering when did y’all get your voice back to normal?

I don’t have any pain when i talk or anything but it just feels really uncomfortable and swollen and sounds really weird. Most of my pain and scabs are gone as well so i don’t think thats it…I definitely thought my voice would be normal a lot earlier.

So if anyone has maybe had a similar experience or if someone can tell me when I’ll get my voice back i would really appreciate it because its getting quite annoying!

Food recommendations?

Hello, i had my surgery on the 4th and for this past week i could basically eat whatever i wanted, the pain wasn’t bad at all i barely felt it , but today the really bad pain began… anything i try to eat or drink really burns. I’ve tried everything from soup, mashed potatoes, apple sauce… everything i swallow feels like someone is cutting my throat with razor blades

So if anyone has any secret tips and tricks on what they ate or what their diet kinda looked like on the harder days that didn’t cause such pain i would very much appreciate it!
