Help!!! I'm Sick And My Band Has Cinched Up!

I have a swollen sore throat so bad that it hurts to swallow and for the last 2 days my band has locked up on me and I can barely get anything down...is this normal or should I be worried?

    Sounds like you should see a Dr.

    Sore throat that bad, sounds like strep throat.

    Hope you feel well soon!

    Definately call your doctor. My band gets tight whenever my allergies act up, sinus draining....ugggh.

    You might need a small unfill till you get better. Take care.
