What do you eat when it hurts to swallow?

Asked by longgone (19533points) March 14th, 2019

I have a severe issue with my throat. I’m seeing an ENT in the morning.

Until then, I need to eat something. I barely had anything solid all day, because it hurts to swallow even water or tea with honey. It feels like I’m swallowing shards of glass. Understandably, my body is rebelling against that plan.

If you needed to get as much nutritious food inside you as possible, in a short amount of time (to limit the pain), what would you pick?

Pain meds don’t make a difference at this point, though I took a dose just now and I’m still hoping it might kick in.
