What Causes Sore Throat After The Removal Of Lymphoma?
Hello I am a 70 year female. Had a lipoma removed about 4 weeks. After surgery my throat was really sore. It lasted about 3 days. I then started coughing. Just little coughs with some phlegm. Now for the past few days I am having trouble taking a deep breath. Could this be a result of the breathing tube? Thank you
Post endotracheal intubation(throat tube) minor mucosal trauma can lead to inflammation of throat causing pharyngitis/laryngitis/tracheitis.Symptoms of these three can overlap and a diagnosis can be made only by consulting with your doctor.As difficulty in breathig is there possibility of pneumonia also should be ruled out,Mean while take steam inhalation.
