Roof of mouth pain

Hello All

New to the boards. Had my surgery on March the 1st. Doing pretty good except for the extreme pain I am having on the roof of my mouth. Has anyone else had this problem? Getting a little worried about it. Thanks.:smile2:

it is from the tube that they put in your mouth during surgery. My pain lasted about 2-3 days. I have read the pain is normal.

ok thank you. i understand that it does last a couple of days after surgery. I got mine done on monday. Is that normal? my mother says the roof of my mouth may be bruised. I am going to the store to get some sf popsicles. thank you for your help. i have really been enjoying reading everyone's questions in here through some things that i thought was only happening to me. :smile2:

If it does not get better let your doc know.....don't ignore it......could be something like an abscess that is totally unrelated to surgery.

I have slooowwwwly but surely getting better with tylenol and popsicles...I have my first doctors visit on Thursday and I will let them know if it does not get better before that. Thank you for the reply:thumbup:

I also had my surgery on March 1st. My throut was sore for 3-4 days and the roof of my mouth was itchy, kinda like you get when you have allergies. As of now it is feeling better.

i think what i am experiencing is a sinus infection. noticed i was feeling sort of like a popping in my ear when i swallowed. i dont know if that has anything to do with the surgery or the tube being down my throat. could be a coincidence. i have a drs appt in the morning to get looked at but i have been taking some tylenol sinus and feels much better. but if i have a sinus infection i need to get some antibiotics in me. but i think the throat pain from the tube has been gone. good luck with your progress.
