Answers:
Perhaps you should see a good vet. They're usually cheaper, and the wait in the office isn't as bad.Health Question & Answer

yahoo answers is not really the best place to ask a medical question about something that can be bad.
What you should do instead is call a doctor instead and question them if what happened is fine or if you should go and check up just incase.
I would check up just incase noting that the throat is quite a fragile area.Health Question & Answer

if it gets worse, go to urgent care or the ER.
If it's not too bad, then consider at least calling your doctor Monday morning.

Meanwhile, make sure to get it clean,
and KEEP it clean!
Infection can turn a small scratch into a huge, painful, and, sometimes even dangerous illness.

Neosporin or polysporin should also be used.
Be sure to follow the package instructions!

Neosporin has a pain relieving product as well!!
It will lightly numb the scratch, as well as help it to heal faster!
That's a big plus in my book!!

Best of Luck!!!

i've hit my throat hard before and had it feel the exact same way. i think if anything serious had happened u wouldnt be asking and ud already be at the ER so i'd say wait it out, take some pain medication, and see how you feel in the morning. if those sharp pains get any worse dear or more frequent, just go to the ER to be safe. but if it stays relatively same, just save your money.

hope u feel better soon and make sure ur bf teaches that dog some rules about not jumping on ppl geez...Health Question & Answer

How big was the dog.? If it was a med to large dog, there may have been enough weight behind the momentum to cause damage. Is there swelling or inflammation in your throat to indicate injury.? Put some ice on the area and take some ibuprofen......Health Question & Answer

I'd give yourself a little time and if it's still bothering you then yeah I'd get it checked out. Listen to your gut and follow it,no matter what anybody else says. My gut has saved my life two times now. Take care of yourself and always listen to your intuition.Health Question & Answer

Drink lots of liquids. If this problem doesn't resolve it's self in a few days see a doctor about it. The dog could have injured something in your throat but it's unlikely. Good luck. :)Health Question & Answer
