Something stuck?

[Chrisb428 626]

I am 2 wks post op and just progressed to a soft diet. Has anyone else had the feeling of something being stuck in their throat? It has felt this way all day. I can drink and swallow foods just fine and have been taking small bites and chewing thoroughly. Just curious if this was a common "feeling" or not?

It's fairly common early on. You may still be swollen. Even though the foods are soft, you may have to add a little sauce or some type of moisture to them.

@Orchids&Dragons Thank you! It's not painful or bad just odd...lol. I was hoping it was normal!

Is it food related?

Or could it be tonsil stones? My daughter gets them and I have to remove them...

I had something similar. It felt like something (I described it as a piece of flesh) hanging in my throat. The doctors checked and said nothing was there, but I felt it. Four months later, it's finally gone.
