Is Sore Throat Normal After Suffering A Mild Anaphylaxis Reaction?
I had a mild anaphylaxis reaction to something at work. No trouble breathing but throat started to swell and at one point I couldn’t even swallow anymore. This was yesterday but today I have an extremely sore throat. I’m a Medical Assistant so talk a lot at work. I worked my normal shift today and expected to feel a little tired but is the sore throat normal? By the end of the day I couldn’t talk anymore it hurt so much & keep needing to clear my throat and coughing on and off. Is this all normal?

Hi,
After an anaphylaxis reaction and in terms of anaphylaxis means you experienced symptoms in the upper respiratory airways with nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, throat tightness and/or lower respiratory airways with obstruction that causes cough and dyspnea and/or cardiovascular with hypotension and/or gastrointestinal system with dysphagia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bloating, cramps or/and cutaneous with urticaria, erythema, pruritus and angioedema.
It is normal to have a sore throat after having dysphagia because of the inflammation occurred during the reaction. It will go after treatment and if you don’t have any contact with the trigger.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
