If she was under a general anesthetic she most likely had a breathing tube (Ive had them twice) and my throat was always sore for a few days. Have her gargle with warm salt water, and possibly gargle with mouth rinse made for people with dry mouth. I think it is called Bio-tine(SP)

I had a really bad (hoarse) throat after a minor surgery for a day. It's caused by the tube that goes down your throat. I guess your mom's is just prelonging a bit. Ask her to drink some warm water and stick to warm liquids. She should be fine soon.

Assuming she didn't have throat surgery, a hoarse throat can be common from anaethesia. It goes away in a few days with rest and gentle fluids. If, as I have had, she had a tube down her throat, expect a longer recovery, maybe a week or so.

take sore throat medicine , its because they put a tube down your throat while your under , for the surgery, so you can breath without throwing up and choking on your own vomit, it normally last about 3, or 4 days , of having a sore throat

it definitely relies upon on the music and the time-honored of people who very own and prepare the horses. There are people who will run injured horses via giving them painkillers. between the commonest is bute, which horses are examined for now to ward off that real element. vendors and running shoes who fairly shelter their horses and desire them to have long careers take stunning care of them. My pal in extreme college had an ex race horse as her "puppy". I observed no data that he replace into ever dealt with badly, he replace into no longer head shy (which horses are in the event that they have been crushed), had a firendly disposition and alter into superb to experience (I used to experience him whilst she have been given a 2d horse). He replace right into a gelding, and did no longer win many races, so he replace into bought and my pal's family have been given him. there's no longer something inherently incorrect in a game that encourages horses to do what they do natrually. I definitely have ridden horses that are aggressive and do in contrast to different horses to pass them - as quickly as that occurs, the ears pass back and the pony selections up the %.. some horses have that spirit and could actually die for you, some do no longer. merely as in any game - fantastically ones that use animals - you might have people who will mistreat animals just to make a dollar.

general anesthesia puts a tube in your mouth /down your throat to breathe for you while you are asleep/paralysed during an operation o you will not feel any pain from the operation...
the endotracheal tube can give one a sore throat for a few days.

I hope she's just hoarse, or did she have a throat transplant from a horse.

you should consult your doc. He shouldn't have given you a horse's throat. Might want to hold onto that receipt
