You can't call today? That looks infected.

You really should call today. That looks bad. Good luck, hope it works out for you

Please don't wait to call. Infections can be very serious and need to be treated asap.

Please keep us posted. I hope you feel better soon.

Take care.

My throat was very sore too after surgery and the doctor let me have Cepacol cough drops to help with the pain. But, your's looks bad.... hope you called the doctor and let us know how it works out!

I talked to a nurse friend of mine and she gave me some home remedies. It is so much better. Thanks for all your concerns. Now just to figure out how to get my Protein and Water in.....
