Serious sore throat from intubation?

Since my bypass surgery Friday I have had an intense sore throat. May be swollen even. Hard and painful to swallow and very dry, very horse but that is subsiding. When does this Improve? Actually my throat is more painful and tough to deal with than the urgency itself and aftermath. Serious thick phlegm too…. Anyth8ng to relieve this pain and irritation?

    I had a good bit of irritation and discomfort for probably the first week. Warm tea and lots of rest seemed to do the trick.

    I had foot surgery in Feb and it was really bad. I’m hoping to have a more skilled anesthesiologist this time! (Surgery in 3 weeks)

I had a sore throat for about 3 weeks Post Op.....I found that warm decaf tea helped soothe my irritation but it will go away for sure.
