Purging...?
Question:
Answers:
it means you shouldn't do it.
Why on EARTH would you be purging? That is so unsafe and so unhealthy!!
"my throat got tight and it hurt when i was drinking water afterwards.. what does it mean? why did it happen?"
It means DON'T DO IT! It's your body's way of warning you..head it's warnings and STOP!!!!!!
That is your body begging you to STOPPIT!!
your throat got tight - probably a muscle spasm
it hurt when you were drinking afterward... was it a burning pain inside your throat... or a muscle pain when making the swallowing motion??
If it was burning inside, that is because when you purge you are bringing stomach acid into your throat, causing the acid to burn and eat away at your throat. Major damage here!! If it was the swallowing thing... then it's probably cuz the muscles that spasmed are sore.
It sounds like you were forcing your stomach contents out by sticking your fingers in your throat to make your self throw up forcefully. This practice can cause not just that pain in your throat when you are swallowing, but you will also get cavities and lose your teeth, and eventually get a severe spasm in your esophagus called an esophageal spasm. An esophageal spasms pain feels like a heart attack. Its in your chest and Its pretty scary and hard to manage. Stop while your ahead.
