Whats new?

Did a REAL dumb thing yesterday. Tasted some chili in the pot while it was cooking and didn't check how hot it was first like my Mama taught me and burned the heck out of my throat. It happened yesterday afternoon and I had a little discomfort at first but here it is over 15 hours later and I have a real sore throat. Kind of feels like I have a lump deep in my throat too.
Don't have any difficulty breathing and that ran through my mind last night before I went to sleep. Got up at 4 and called the emergency room at the VA for ideas it hurt so bad. She said take Tylenol and try throat lozenges and AVOID HOT CHILI....they say laughter is the best medicine but it is not working in this case. Must have burnt my vocal cords too because my voice sounds a little deeper and raspy this morning. Hope it doesn't get any worse or I have to go into Emergency!
