Is My Throat Burnt?

I burned my espohagus on a very hot piece of sweet potato pie last night. I immediately drank 2 bottles of cold water. I new feel a swollen sensation in my throat. It has been about 12 hrs since the injury. I am sure it is burned badly. How do I treat this? Do I need to go to the ER?

Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that if burn is severe then take consultation by ENT specialist.Meanwhile do oral betadin gargle 3 to 4 times a day. Take bland and cold liquid.Avoid salty and spicy food.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks
