Good morning everyone, and if I haven't said thank you for being here, "Thank you." I was up most of the night last night just waiting for the 4 hour mark to take pain medication that doesn't do much. The doc has me on liquid Lortab, 2 tsp every 4 hours as needed. It's like there was just a bit of pain when swallowing, and then, "Bam," super pain when swallowing. My neck is super swollen this morning, too. Please tell me what some of y'all took that was successful with minimizing this pain. I also have the magic mouthwash that doesn't do much either. Help!
