This is normal and will stabilize in time. I also almost choked to death on a Motrin 800 that got lodged in my throat during the first week or so after surgery. I had enough internal air in me that the pill came flying out and shot across the room. I also cut my food in to little bites for the first couple of months after ADR surgery.

I am now back to being a pig and can swallow what I want.

This is just normal swelling from the surgery. Hang in there.
