What Is The Solution For Soreness In Adam's Apple While Swallowing?

I woke up with my adams apple very sore and that part hurts when I swallow. I have never noticed it before this morning. It feels like a knot and painful to touch it altho it doesn't move around when I try to move it. It feels like I am choking when I swallow anything. And since I am a woman its it possible for women to have a adams apple.

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern.

As per your query you have symptoms of soreness in adam's apple while swallowing which seems to be due to streptococcal infection of throat. need not to worry much. I would suggest you to start with anti-inflammatory medication such as acetaminophen t reduce pain and swallowing there and help in food ingestion. You should do warm saline gargle son daily basis 3-4 times a day. You should avoid intake of cold carbonated beverages along with sharp and spicy food substances. You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription. You should go for throat swab test as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
