| A 68-year-old man presented to our general district hospital in December 2006 with the chief complaint of sore throat, which had started abruptly 2 hours earlier. The pain was described as intense with a stabbing character. He reported minimal improvement after being given 10 mg of morphine subcutaneously. |
