When I was 12 years old many years ago I had my tonsils and adenoids removed. I had to miss school for a full week. I remember waking up after the surgery and I was a little sore. It was my very first time getting surgery done. My parents were actually surprised that I was able to talk after the surgery was done. After a few hours in recovery I was told I could go home. For the remainder of the recovery time I had at home I was in a lot of pain. I had pain that I felt from my ears throat and neck. My doctor said that that's normal of course. I was only allowed to eat and drink soft foods like milkshakes, smoothies, slurpees, mashed potatoes, and ice cream that's pretty much what I ate and drank for the whole week. Then after the week was over I was pretty much back to my normal routine. Except I couldn't participate in gym class for a week when I went back to school. My doctor said that my tonsils were definitely huge. I guess it's a good thing they were removed.

Day 1Man i got from surgery i felt great day 2 oooooowwww my neck oooowww my throat it hurts everywhere in my throat Day 3 ok its getting better Day 4 runny nose Day 5 blood from nose Day 6 nothing i dont feel it Day 7 did i get in operation Day 8 it hurting a bit Dat 9 i hope doctor says eat anything you want this is my experience this is day 9 for me 👍 (Edit): oh yeah i got surgery from adenoid i couldn't breathe from my nose very well before i got to operation 👍

Just got my adenoids removed this Tuesday. Throat hurts alot. Should I be swallowing my saliva because I've been having alot more than usual, or do I spit it out? Is it possible that I choke on my saliva? Is it normal that I can't open my mouth very wide without weird pain? And how long will it take for my throat to stop hurting?

Just got mine out day 2 hurts it like a roller coaster good then bad then good and bad

I'm just scared of throwing up afterwards

i got my tonsils removed on semptember 5th 2019 and my throat is still hurting after 5 days and the doctor said it would kick for about a week and i have 1 more day until school and spit comes up every time I keep my mouth closed and sometimes i wake up with a mouth full of spit please tell me why this is happening.Also i have this pain medicine that i have to take every four hourrs and at 7:30pm i used the bathroom and my nose was just running. !!please help!!

My throat really hurts. It hurts real bad even if I just swallow saliva. Is it tonsils?? Also I never had surgery for tonsils(if it is) but it kept going away and then coming back, usually once a year. Is that normal?

Its 10:58 pm and tomorrow's sunday. I get my tonsils out on sunday I'm happy right now but I know when I get there I'm gonna be super nervous. I have to wake up at 5:30 to get their at 6:30

After few days after surgery we can eat any food ??? Or there is precautions like no cold n spicy food

Thanks I’m felling ok my ears really hurt

Man I gotta get this surgery soon and I'm scared now helppp Edit: I got them taken out and it's true It hurts and feels weird to talk but I'm fine ig other then that! It really hurts to swallow and you become dehydrated really easy but just remember to take your medicine and eat whenever you can
