The moment i drink or eat something cold my throat becomes red and swollen i can't eat or drink or talk from the pain?

Eat warmer food: You have an interesting problem. Your teeth may have a sensitivity to cold or you could be having a cholenergic response to cold similar to hives. Consult with your dentist first. If no help speak to an allergist. Obviously avoid cold food for now.
