I've burned the inside of my throat!

[Reallyhotthroat]

On taking a big sip of hot chocolate that was too hot. It hurts to swallow. What can I do to help it?

ice lollies

Ice cream iced water etc

You poor thing :(

Is there any swelling?

No swelling that I can see. But it feels like a lump in my throat when swallowing

Ooooh I've done that before! Gargle with with aspirin ( I want to say disposable aspirin but that's not right, what is the word?!!). If its further down, as PPs suggest, cool drinks/lollies. Failing all of the above, a paracetamol and prepare to feel uncomfortable swallowing it. But it will help.

Soluble aspirin!!! That's what I was trying to say!!

YY that's what I get told for terrible occasional tonsillitis!.

Soluble/ dispersible aspirin and GARGLE!

Other word is dispersible as it doesn't actually dissolve but breaks up and mixes in you're not going mad op with disposable! Close enough to find in shop for sure!
