I woke up this morning and i couldnt swallow...my throat hurt soo much...then within a few hours the pain was gone...why does this happen??

[imwho?????]

are you a mouth breather?  your throat could dry out over night from it. it would probly be best to see your gp tho to make sure.

Are you a smoker, because once I smoked so much the dangly bit at the back of my throat swelled up like a horrific sandpaperry flesh marble and it sat on my tongue all dry and each time I swallowed I swallowed it and then coughed it up and it hurt so much. But it was gone by just after lunch. Also, in the winters I would get coughy and dry at night and in morning, but had breath pure as the rusling wind throughout the day. Odd huh? I guess it might be something to do with being horizontal.

I've cut down a bit now.

Iam a non-smoker, have been all 18 years of my life too!!!! I could be getting sick i guess?

Go to your doctor!  My mother in law is in isolation in hospital because she has scarlet fever (strep throat) at the moment.  If it is just a sore throat cold weather caused, tonsilitis, etc you haven't lost anything have you?  That's what doc's are there for after all.

Hi krissy - if it happens again, it would be best to visit your GP straight away. In the meantime, keep well.
