Has anyone who has been sleeved used a throat numbing spray or lozenge after surgery for the pain. I bet after they put the bougie in and move it around a lot that the throat hurts quit a bit!

I didn't notice any throat pain at all. Never even thought about ht unil you mentioned it.

Don't recall a sore throat but did have a dry mouth and was give a mouth swab.

My Dr won't allow gum or mints the 1st 2 weeks just in case they are accidently swallowed.

i didn't have pain at all on my throat. just dried mouth after surgery

Y'all really should try not to tempt me with threads like this.

I KNEW IT! I just knew when I saw that you responded it was going to be a chance of something other than the actually meaning of the question LOL

Hehehe.... So much to not say....

I didn't have any throat pain afterwards.

Haha! Set myself up for that one!! Good to know that throat pain is not common. Thanks everyone!!!

This whole thread made me giggle inappropriately!!! God I'm such a little kid! Lol

I had a scratchy throat for several days. My voice was actually different for close to a week because of it. But, it didn't really hurt. It was more like when I have really bad seasonal allergies. It felt more dry than anything. I never needed anything for it, but the pain meds you will have will help too if you have a sore throat.
