Surgery tmrw (9/29) with Dr. DeLacure

Your incision looks incredible!
Sorry u are having a bad day. I particularly had alot of jaw/ear pain, Mostly the temporalis muscles and the masseter just seemed to be tight as hell causing me to clench even more. I got massage and finally resorted to several rounds of botox into jaw and temporalis muscles. I had these symptoms before surgery but it did flair quite a bit after surgery. Doc warned my TMJ would kick up. I didn’t have much throat issues like you.
Give yourself another 2-4 weeks. I found that by about 12 weeks, alot (but not all) had subsided. Hang in there. Things will get better. be good to yourself :hugs:

Been following you regarding surgery. How are you doing now? I’m thinking of making an appointment t with Dr DeLacure. He is six hours away and don’t know how long I’d be in hospital, how many trips I’d need for follow up, etc.
