A member asked:

My tonsils are swollen and i can't eat anything it hurts to swallow how many pounds will i loose if i don't eat anything for 4 days?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: First, if you can't even swallow - go to the hospital now! this can lead to inability to breathe as well. Throat infections can move quickly. Second, nobody can say how much weight you'll lose but probably a couple pounds. You'll probably faint or get other health problems before 4 days.
