Right Side Of Throat Feels Bruised

My tongue feels bruised........?

I have noticed that my tongue will feel bruised off and on. Or possibly that its "pulled" somehow....the tongue is a muscle right? Anywho....it feels bruised (or "pulled") on the on the bottom way in the back....but on the sides...never in the middle underneath. The first time it happend I was sick with a basic cold...with a terribe sore throat. So I chalked it up to it being part of the whole sore throat thing that was going on. The cold/sore throat thing subsided along with the soreness under my tongue.

WELL since that sore throat the soreness feeling under my tongue has came back....once on both sides underneath and now its back again...but only on one side. It hurts when I swallow (because of my tongue moving....not my throat)......it hurts when I yawn....pretty much every time I move my tongue at all.

Has anyone else experienced this before?? Anyone know why it is? Is it possible to "pull" your tongue muscle just like you can pull a muscle in your arm or leg?

Why does the left side of my throat feel bruised when I swallow a mouth full of food hard?

There are "nodes" on either side of the your throat just under the jaw line that are part of the lymphatic system that can become swollen for different reasons. When this happens they can become tender and sensitive and could be described as feeling "bruised". Swollen lymph nodes, (sometimes erroneously called "glands") usually indicate infection. The swelling usually goes away on it own when the infection or inflammation clears up. It it persists, however, it should be checked out by a doctor.
Hope that "clears" things up for you.

My chin feels swollen and bruised?

If it’s a simple case of an oil or dead skin blockage in the pore, you’ll probably have a whitehead or small red pimple that comes and goes.

A whitehead pimple may be painful if it comes to a head quickly. If bacteria works its way into the pimple, it will become infected, and those are the most painful ones.

If you’re dealing with a particularly painful whitehead, it might be time to pop it. This is generally not recommended, but it’s very painful, it might be worth risking possible infection and scarring by popping it.

Make sure your hands are very clean, and use gauze to do it gently and as sterile as possible after softening it with a very hot washcloth.

If your painful pimples are of the subcutaneous variety – that is, if they are under the skin, with no heads – you’ll have to wait them out.

You can treat them with a topical solution like Revitol, but in the meantime, you’ll want to relieve the pain. For immediate relief, run a washcloth under very cold water and drape it over your face while you relax.

A gentle aspirin mask may be a good option as well (crush several uncoated aspirin tablets and combine with warm water, aloe, or honey). If all else fails, and you’re in a lot of pain, you might try a topical antibiotic ointment that has a pain relief feature.

The best way to relieve the pain, of course, is to get rid of the acne altogether. Put yourself on a skin care regimin that will heal the issue.

A topical treatment plan, combined with an oral treatment like Acnezine, will probably reveal clear, pain-free skin within a few weeks. Painful pimples are difficult to treat, simply because they are so painful to the touch.

Really sore and swollen thyroid on right side?

So this is a little freaky. I've been feeling a little bit of pain in my neck in the thyroid region on the right side of the Adam's apple. Being the hypochondriac that I am, I kept checking to feel if the thyroid cartilage was symmetrical. First of all, should one even be able to feel their thyroid cartilage? Anyway, so all throughout yesterday and the day before, I'm been kind of messing with it. Well, last night I noticed that there's a little pressure point on one spot (on the superior horn on the right side). Also I discovered that if I put a little pressure on the right side of the thyroid cartilage, it would kind of "pop" out of place and go right back...this does NOT seem normal. I've had a lot of pain in that area. There seems to be a squishy lump on that side...could it be because I've been playing with it or could it be something worse like cancer? I'm so freaking worried about this. I can still sing, eat, drink, talk (with a little hoarseness but not too bad). I do have a bit of a struggle swallowing; it makes a clicking noise when I try to...and of course it feels worse on the right side. It's also worth mentioning that my tonsils are pretty swollen too and I might have tonsillitis. I've got a trip planned in three days to Idaho to meet my extended family...I've got really bad anxiety and every day I wonder if I will wake up the next morning because I'm so afraid of dying, so will I even make it to Thursday? It's Monday now. I'm 21 years old and ♂ male.

Pain, slight swelling and tenderness in lower jaw, mouth and throat between collarbones. What could it be?

For the last few weeks I ve had a variety of possibly unrelated symptoms.
First my lower left jaw felt bruised and tender but there is no bruise and now today it feels swollen into my cheek. It s definitely not my teeth. I checked and the mouth pain isn t coming from inside of my mouth. It s my cheek muscles.
Alongside that issue I ve also been having issues with pain while swallowing but it s not like a sore throat you would experience with a cold. It s sharp and tight. Almost feels like a lump is there but in actuality there is nothing blocking my airway. It s right between my collarbones where the pain and tightness starts during swallowing and then right after I swallow my throat feels pressurized clear into my ears, or tight for a few seconds. But it s every time I eat or drink no matter what it is. Not a cold or anything virus related. It s different.
I ve also had an issue with this "lump" feeling causing coughing fits after talking too much at work. My throat becomes really really dry very quickly.
Also , and this is odd but you might understand but when I burp it causes a lot of discomfort in my throat. Like my throat is raw and every little touch causes a reaction.
But I m not even sure how to present this issue to a doctor. There isn t anything actually in my throat.
