Did you have an ET tube.  That could be the reason for the burning.  I had surgery Monday and Tuesday I was sucking on SF popscicles.  Anything cold helps.  Doc said it just needs time to heal.  It's doing much better today.  Good Luck and I hope you feel better soon....Kim

You might want to hold off on the coffee for a few weeks since even the decaf is pretty acid and can make your throat and stomach more sore.

I can't believe how good I feel...I'm actually hungry. . I'm tired of broth and jello. I have no pain by areas stitched...thanks for helping me..
