Sorry: you are having this pesky but very common side effect from intubation! Try inhaling warm vapor ( Vaporizer) If you dpn't have one go into bathroom and run hot shower until room "steams" If it persists beyond a week contact your PCP for advice or referral to Throat specialist! Hope this helps! Good Luck! Dr Z
