My boyfriend isn't letting me eat ice cream because my throat hurts. can i eat ice cream?

Sure, feel free!: Your boyfriend is mistaken. Presumably you have a minor viral infection with pharyngitis. There are no foods that will harm you in any way. Eat whatever you want, unless it's too painful or otherwise bothers you. Cold ice cream might be one of the easiest for you.

I took a Tylenol maybe three hours ago, and it feels stuck in my throat. I've tried drinking warm water, eating ice cream, throwing up, etc. It doesn't hurt to swallow or anything, it just feels stuck. Also I have bad acid reflux, and I have anxiety.
Is cold or hot better for a dry throat? For example ice cream, soup, etc.
