Swishing with soda water or ginger ale sometimes helps if the carbonation doesn't burn your tongue. Let it sit for a day to get rid of some of the bubbles. This is a time when you'll go through a ton of kleenex getting rid of the stuff but it does get better!!! I slept in a chair for a couple of months so I didn't choke while I slept but it gets back to normal consistency in a few more weeks. Hang in there !! - Kris
