    Yes, it's perfectly normal and will last for a few days. Most people experience this but sadly doctors never warn them, leaving them to panic over it instead!

    Just restrict yourself to things that are easier to swallow for the time being. Probably best to avoid acidic fruits or juices, and certainly don't attempt bread. This will soon pass.
