My throat hurts when I swallow.

My throat hurts when i swallow?

  • Why is it that when i swallow, my throat hurts. I'm not sick and i'm not warm temperature. but when ever i swallow, i feels llike a muscle soreness behind the adams apple. throughout the day, it becomes better, but when i sleep and wake up from it. it becomes painful again then it goes down. why is this? or what is this

  • Answer:

    Your neck muscles are tight and they tighten up everything inside your throat at the same time. the muscle for swallowing is tight and giving you that pain you feel just from being tight and the pain gets worse for that bit when you try to swallow something. To get rid of the pain you have to free up your neck muscles and here's how to do that: Neck Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about two minutes, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds. For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.

I had the same thing. My mom didn't take me to the doctor, so I don't know what it actually is, but honey and cough drops helped to soothe my throat.
