throat pain
So i went to urgent care on thursday from throat pain. They did a qtip test and just called today and said came back okay. Which is great. But i cant figure out why my throat gets big and goes small? And is swollen. Anyone else experience this? Im 34 weeks today.

Im not a doctor but I assume this is unrelated to your pregnancy. Perhaps you caught a little cold? Every time I catch a cold, my throat is the first to hurt and tonsils swell up. Have you tried drinking some hot tea with honey? See if it relieves the pain! I say if it still hurts after a week, see your doctor.

Yea well ive tried ginger tea, gargling with salt water 3 to 4 times a day. Breezers cough drops, saline spray and i take cetrizine daily for allergies. Nothing has worked. I went to urgent care and that qtip test even came back okay. Whats happening is when u look in the mirror gets small and than gets larger when its larger its less irritated and better overall. Is that what happens when ur sick?

Hmm that doesn't really happen to me. Generally when I have a sore throat, it's just red and inflamed. If you went to the hospital and they did a swab of your throat and it came back ok, then you don't have a virus which is good. Your best bet is to just mention this pain to your doctor and see what your doctor says.

Mine has done this my whole pregnancy. I figure it is just from being run down from my body working over time for this babe!

Sure have! In fact, I have it now. I take tylenol, drink warm lemonade with ginger and honey or anything that sounds good. Just have to wait it out, mainly. Hang in there mama

Yep! I've been tested for strep, and it's always negative. My dr said it's just from my body being in over drive while pregnant. Our bodies sure do some weird things!

Thats just crazy! I wish there would be more of a yes or no.
