I pulled a muscle in my tongue...?!


Question: I pulled a muscle in my tongue....?
I've been sick with a cold for the past couple of weeks and I think I pulled a muscle in my tongue from coughing. How long will it take before the pain goes away and is there anything I can do to stop the pain.? It hurts every time I swallow because my tongue moves. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I had something like this once and threw every cough and cold medication I could find at it with no improvement. Finally I realized that it was just swollen and took some aspirin. Rapid and lasting relief. Ibuprophen is a better choice nowadays, but any anti-inflammatory medication should help. Health Question & Answer

I never heard of pulling a muscle in your tongue. The swallowing pain is not from the tongue, its from your throat. Most likely, you have a throat virus along with your cold, Like I do and it is very difficult to swallow.Health Question & Answer

Good Luck!Health Question & Answer
