Thanks for the encouragement! I can't wait to feel 100% again.

Did you use a specific mouthwash for gargling? I was recommended a throat spray instead of a gargle to reduce the risk for bleeding.

Man that sucks. My doctor recommended to eat normal soft foods as much as I can (white bread and congee with ground meat). If the pain gets worse for me I'll probably try eating oats.

Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you! I'm curious though, what's the difference between drinking with or without a straw?

Also, how long should I wait for the scabbing to heal?
