Nothing too severe really, but it's been annoying me for a week.

Lower left part of the throat inside feels pain when I swallow. (swallow jokes blahblahblah, okay are we done?)

It happened already around 2-3 weeks ago, lasted a week but this time it feels... more prominent? I dunno, maybe I'm just really annoyed.

It doesn't hurt when I sing in the shower or talk, just really when I swallow. (>.> hate that word)
It also varies in pain when I swallow. Like just now, I tried it twice, first time didn't hurt, second was a motherload shit of pain.

    You should probably see a doctor; or just wait it out :p

    The classic joke would to be to remove the object before you swallow.

    The serious answer would be that you most likely damaged your throat either with something hot, or with dehydration. Either way, you can wait it out and if its not better by a week (Please drink lots of water during this time) go and see a doctor, and see what they say.

    i dont think its strep b/c that should clear by 2 weeks unless your immune system is crap. most likely an ulcer or some damage from an off diet or something. Do you notice more pain with certain types of foods? (like spicy, hard, salty, etc?)

    Only symptom is painful swallowing?
    Haven't seen the back of your throat? Any white spots on tonsils?
    ...do you have your tonsils?

    Doctor would be the easiest way to go.
    Sorry couldn't be of more help.

    Have you put apple cider vinegar in your water? I don't usually just freak out and go to the doctor for a sore throat. I do apple cider vinegar and water for a couple days. If that gets rid of it, then I don't worry about it. If it doesn't, then I go to the doctor and get some meds.

    I don't like the sound of an ulcer...

    Not really. If its hard of course it's more difficult to swallow. (i'm digging my own grave...)

    Is it just a sore throat? Is your neck swollen? Are you running a slight fever?
    Sorry for bombardment of questions, but I'm very familiar with most kinds of sore throats (Weak immune system :\)


    No fever, no swelling.

    I do hot water and salt. Hope that's fine.

    I have no idea. I've never been able to do salt water more than once to see if it works.

    Usually for me it's post-nasal drip from allergies that causes these types of symptoms. Hopefully it's something simple :) Have you gone to the Dr. yet?

    I had something like this a month ago. Two bulbs of pus formed in my throat ( I saw it in the mirror) and it hurt D: I went to the doctors and got this spray thingy and it immediately felt better.

    Spray for your throat or did you shoot it up your nose to drain down?

    I never am able to understand swallowing jokes, swallowing bodily fluids is a marvelous thing. It should never be a subject of negativity.

    As for the problems of your sore throat, try eating wholewheat bread. If not I am sorry and hope you recover soon.
