Sakit Tekak

From internet:

I just had surgery and my throat hurts, should I be concerned?

Answer:

Your throat hurts after surgery for two reasons.

First, you may be dehydrated, since you weren't allowed to eat or drink before surgery and you are allowed minimal food and fluids after surgery.

Second, during general anesthesia, an endotracheal tube is put into your mouth and down your throat, a process called intubation. This tube is then attached to the ventilator to help you breathe during surgery.

The tube can be irritating to the vocal cords, both during the surgery and during the insertion process.

What do I do about my sore throat?

Normal sore throat care including minimal speaking, drinking lots of fluids and over-the-counter remedies should do the trick within a few days. If your sore throat persists more than a week, consider consulting your surgeon or another doctor. Permanent throat or vocal cord injury is rare, but it is one of the risks of anesthesia.

Aku :

Ok...the problem I'm having now since the surgery has been with my throat...somehow during the intubation my uvulva (anak tekak) took a hit and is quite swollen and bruised at the bottom...Sakit dan perit masa nak makan (yang peliknya aku still berselera nak makan walaupun sakit tekak setiap kali nak makan - Seriously time nih roti bakar yang dah sejuk pun ku nampak sedap..kalau tak sebab sakit tekak nih mau 10 keping ku telan tapi sebab sakit tekak, mampu makan 3-4 keping je tu pun makan bersulam air)..Satu lagi yang pelik..luka kat perut dah kering dan semakin baik..tetapi sakit tekak ni la plak...Ingatkan perut yang sakit tapi tekak plak sakit.

Immediately lepas surgery memang husband cakap mulut aku penuh air liur + darah skit & apparently doc said darah tu mungkin sebab anak tekak ku terluka masa nak masuk endotracheal tube tuh...Masa sehari dua lepas surgery, anak tekak (uvulva) tu kelihatan putih dan macam kejung (memanjang) - setiap kali makan rasa nak tertelan je anak tekak tu..tapi masa tuh x perit tekak..la ni putih kat tekak dah berkurang..tapi jadik merah + perit tekak..aduilaaa....





Sekarang ni duk kumur air garam...Sbenarnya sakit tekak ku sekarang ni rasanya perit disebabkan luka tuh dan rasa sakitnya lain daripada sakit tekak sebab demam biasa...Aiseh nak tunggu luka pada anak tekak baik la pulakk..
