Your throat could well be sore and a little swollen. A phleghmy cough can also be a result of this as can some dried blood. Some blood could be in your nose as well. You need to breath deeply and cough everything up. Drink plenty of cool fluids. Ice cream, sherbet and jelly will also help as well as soft food like mash potato. Avoid things like toast and biscuits.
Do you have a temperature? Take yours twice a day before drinking. If necessary crush your pills and take mixed with yoghurt or ice cream.
Were you given any anti blood clotting medicine?
If you are unsure of anything call the surgeons secretary or your doctor
