Have you ever had a sore throat that was so bad that the doctor had to stick a needle into the tonsils and draw out a chunk of pus?

yes. i had that a year ago. i kept getting sore throats and the doc i went to thought it was recurring strep, so put me on antibiotics. finally i got fed up and went to a specialist who immediately looked at it, diagnosed it as a peritonsillar abcess (??), and stuck a needle in to drain out a lot of nasty stuff. that wasn't enough though, so he went in with a scalpel and made a bigger cut so it would drain on its own. pretty nasty, unpleasant experience, but I felt better on the spot and have been fine since.
I dun also had da worst whore throat ever, but dat iz part of my bidness. My throat collects all kindz of junk. I try to spit, but id don't alwayz work.
No, but once on vacation when I was younger I was chewing on a big peice of grass, and I sneezed. The grass disappeared, so I thought that I dropped it or something. That evening my throat started getting real sore and then the next day it was very painful. I turned out that when I sneezed the grass went up my nasal passage and was stuck between there and my throat. My dad and his friend had to use long forceps to grab it and take it out. Weird.
