How long to heal a burn in your throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Burn: First, it's necessary to know the cause of the throat burn and the severity of the burn. Lye/chemical burns take a long time to heal, whereas scald burns (hot liquids) take far less time, since there is rapid regeneration of the mucosa of the upper aero-digestive tract.
