    • @cristianvillalobos7701
      @cristianvillalobos7701 5 лет назад

      g.gracelee I’m luck I guess lol literally throughout the whole recovery I could eat and speak perfectly im now on day 15 and have had no pain since around day 10. I would say the pain level on the first 7 days was around a 2 for me. Also I would really like to give props to my vaporizer which helped me stay hydrated so much and I drank plenty of water as well. Good luck on the rest of your recovery

    My son just took them out today. He is 6 y old . It hurt me so much just to see him after he wake up. Make me cry like crazy . The first 1 h he didn't stop crying then they give him a painkiller and that's hellp him a lot . After that he started eating popsicle and ice cream. I believe he finish 5 popsicle in 2 h . All that was between 10am to 2 pm . Now it's 10:30 pm and he's sleeping but I'm sure with a pain. Hope he get better tomorrow. At the same time was around 8 kids having the same surgery some of them did very good and some a lot worse than son. So it's difference between person to other .
    Good luck for u and ur family 🙏♥️

    I was just through tonsillectomy and I'm on day 12, and you can actually start eating bread on this day. Just make sure to take small bites, eat with butter and water, and NO CRUST. And the bread should be white bread. You can also have gatorade and other cold drinks

    @raxelleon8189 6 лет назад +6

    Can anybody give me more specific details about the foods you can eat as you recover? Most places I've been to keep telling me I have wait until at least two weeks before you can eat like normal again, whereas I know that there are plenty of things like breads, meat and vegetables that aren't as hard as the others and it isn't that likely that they'll bother your throat. Does anybody have anything like a day by day schedule of foods that are gradually more hard that I can try as I recover?

    An old lady once told me an old timers remedy for the scabbing and pain after tonsil surgery. The lady is dead now but she was aroud 83 at the time she said this. She said that when she had her tonsil surgery as a young lady her father made her eat a big steak in order to peel the scabbing off the back of her throat and promote faster healing. Believe it or not she said the next day her throat felt 100% better and her pain subsided from that point on and her throat healed quickly.

      You can, just minimalize it to milk and vanilla ice cream. And make sure the ice cream is melted a little.

    • @nullifiedrisks
      @nullifiedrisks 8 лет назад

      And make sure it is at least day 11 before having milk. I myself am a milk lover, so I reccommend chocolate milk to have, it gets rid of bacteria in your stomach. So get some chocolate milk on at least day 10. After this milk is literally fine to have.
