In Reply to: EXTREMELY SORE THROAT posted by Brian on May 27, 2000 at 11:06:57:

I had a tracheostomy and a small lesion removed from my uvula at the same time. The uvula operation was much more painful than the trach. If there is infection it can be even more painful.
My uvula was sore and sensitive for over a week after.

Hope this helps.

Scott
