- Here's what to expect after tonsillectomy. Dr. Evans discusses pain medication for adults vs. children, diet restrictions, and what to do if there is bleeding from the throat.
Worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life but the meds definitely help tremendously! Stay on top of your meds! I was prescribed Percocets, it worked wonders! Stock a lot of popsicles, soups, ice, yogurt, apple sauce, apple juice, bananas, oatmeal. Those are things that I bought before surgery. Hope for a speedy recovery for everyone getting the surgery done.
True
I got surgery tomorrow, it is currently July 5th. I am terrified of it cz I was told the the pain after surgery will be terrible.
Bro just tell me did your voice change ?
Yes I agree with you brother lol I couldn’t eat bananas though they had acid in them. I had eye surgery and wisdom but out of all was my tonsils top 10 of all time
@@animeworld-xk8cy Yes your voice does change, that's normal though.
Thank you very much. A short but very explanatory video ! Really helpful
getting surgery tomorrow, want to cancel so bad with all my intrusive thoughts and binge watching videos, will try to leave updates here day by day
how was it
I’m on day 4 of my recovery. Haven’t ate anything in 2 days and can hardly even swallow my own spit
Thanks for the short video
Thankyou Doctor for this informative video. Hello from South Africa
Thank you very much. It was really helpful. Your explanation is great! Glad I found this video. Love and positive vibes from India.
My 8 year old had her tonsils out. We are on day 4 of recovery. So far so good. Better than I thought. She is doing great!
Tylenol, soft foods and popcycles
My 9 year old daughter is getting hers done tomorrow,I sure hope she has a smooth and speedy recovery. Seeing her cry or in pain is just gonna break my heart 😞
@@bepeas80 it took about 20 minutes for procedure and 20 minutes with nurse and then. They came and got me. 40 minutes total. Day 11 scabs came off...there was a bit of blood. Just keep on pain meds. I gave it to my child for about 5 days and she was fine after that. I was Soo worried but here we are 3 months later and she is doing great! She isn't sick a lot and no more snoring. Your child will do great!!!
Did she bleed a lot ?
@@chinocen2717 no. The way they do this procedure now they minimize the amount of blood.
this video was very helpful bc i might get my tonsil removed soon so thanks so much
Hey doc!
Thanks for this video.
I had my tonsils removed 3 days ago and I still snore…
Am I expected to see immediate improvement or after the healing process has been completed?
Stay on top of your meds! Drink everything icy the first few days, and get an ice pack for your neck. By day two I was already shedding the scabs! Still a little rough to swallow but I’m doing much better.
Did you lose any weight after surgery ?
Baby I lost 15 pounds
Hi.. cud u guide me plz.. I’m planning surgery soon & im 43.. m scared of recovery but I’m so done with tonsil stones 🤯.. I need a permanent solution.. also do you hv any throat or digestive issues now post surgery?

Iam from London I just want to say thank you so much for your video you are amazing 🥼 doctor 👨⚕️
How is ur digestion after tonsillectomy. Are you able to digest milk.
Love and respect from Pakistan Kpk
What can we do for the cough and mucus my daughter been coughing the past 2 days and we are on day 12
My chalid have tonsil opreation 6 days before .. When he sleep after that hebpain.very much pain ..whats shouls i do???
it seems crazy to me that one doctor says only eat soft foods (you) and ive seen hundreads of others saying eating rough and normal food is a much better approach
ps after day 4 i was eating pizzas, burgers, chinese take out, including spicy foods, with no pain or complications
@@brightonmoto2146 how long was the healing process before you started feeling normal again ?
I just can’t feel my tongue is that supposed to happen I’m trying not to scare myself
Does it affect singers?
Hello can somebody tell me can I take antibiotic after tonsillectomy surgery? Pleas I have alot of pain 💔 I am die
I’m 2 days in, just realized I can’t taste or smell anything, my nose seems clear and my throat doesn’t hurt a crazy amount.
yea day 2 was pretty painless for me, but day 3-8 ish was hell
@@eatyourcerealnons6573 what causes the pain to get worst? This doesn't make any sense. Shouldn't the pain be decreasing?
On day 2 and pain is nothing. Why does it get worst?
@@jason71ist Because of the antibiotics and painkillers
Yea day 3 and day 8 was hell for me
How long after the surgery I can drink alcohol? This is a serious question. Cause after my set date of the surgery in 2 weeks I’ll travel for a long trip full of alcohol and parties. Will I get healed fully in 2 weeks? Or is it just better do it after the trip?
Never drink Alcohol it's Haram forbidden for the human
is my taste supposed to seem off? it’s not gone but foods i love are oddly tasting and it’s been 11 days since surgery??
Hi, I just had my tonsillectomy 14 days ago my taste is still off…did you ever get your taste back and how long did it take to taste normal again?
HEYYAAAA yes its completely normal and might take 1 month or 2 weeks to get back to normal!
I’m 3 weeks post-op and it’s only slightly better. I’m getting nervous about not regaining my normal taste. Sweet things taste bitter/sour
Great here I am because I was told I need surgery 🤣🤣😣
why do i not feel comfortable with ice or cold drinks anymore, day 6 ? and im also having a need to cough, is it because scabs are falling off? cuz im not bleeding even a little bit... or is it normal to not bleed? i thought everyone had at least a little bit of blood in their spit? 🤨😅 confused
Mine also didn't bleed. I used anti-asthematic(Montelukast 10mg) to subside the feeling of cough.
I had my tonsillectomy on 17-Dec. 2ndry hemorrhage happened on 24-Dec.
I have improved now but I have nasal regurgitation, is this normal ?
What did you do when you had the hemorrhage?
@@loveistheanswer687 did u?
could you tell me how many days after the surgery i can start to smoke?
How many
Hi I got operated on the 22nd of September, after a long recovery. My taste hasn't come back properly and every time I eat food doesn't taste very nice
Same here. Has your taste gotten any better?
@@lexilexi8548 it did and then I got COVID..
My tonsils are so large that they're kissing, but it's never caused me any trouble or discomfort until recently. They've been letting me consider a tonsillectomy and even though I'm scared, I'm also getting REALLY tired of my throat hurting so much that I can't even breathe without pain, and losing sleep over the amount of discomfort.
We're in same situation please what did you do
@@veronicanyabuto4915 I got rid of them a while ago. It still kind of hurts to swallow and eat, but I realized that I've never been able to take a genuine deep breath since I was 5, and it felt pretty crazy. The first days were really rough, but I regret nothing
@@sIugger thanks for replying me know I have courage I can get rid of them
@@veronicanyabuto4915 Glad I could help man, good luck
@@sIugger bro my surgery was done on 17th april till now i am in pain how many days did it take your tonsils to take recover completely.
I still have scretcy and sore throat,tightness in throat 6 months post up....is this normal for adults?
How you've been since then? Did that sore throat went away?
Same
How is ur digestion after tonsillectomy. Are you able to digest milk.
@@sumitbhattacharya4402 i can not digest Nothing
@@the_littlelala What do you mean by that? Is your stomach broken?
Doc is it normal to have throat pain after 1 month after tonsillectomy
I’d go to the doctors if you have good insurance and aren’t worried about a small bill!
@@FreshJokerTV While your country spend bilions and bilions om bombing other country and military you dont have free medical care
Hi sir I'm Rajdeep from India
Sir why is my throat hurting now after my tonsil operation
I feel the same. Had to ask the doctor if something was removed from the throat as well. Lol
They burn the back of your throat to close the wound I’m on day 5 and the pain is the worse it’s been try eating lots of ice it helps
Not that bad for the first day.
I am getting surgery tomorrow
Hi wud u plz share your experience
@@ranjanashukla3046 pls don't do that, some disadvantages is there
Any update?
I just removed my tonsils yesterday...
I'm going through a big pain 😥 and hunger .......
Hope you are okay now
bro my surgery was done on 17th april till now i am in pain how many days did it take your tonsils to take recover completely.
@Mr. Perfect ow I'm so sorry for you! I feel you dude.
Well in my case I had huge pain and couldn't eat for more than 6 days .... but then I had enough... I started antibiotics without doctor's prescription... I just had some pills amoxicillin (gladly) and with the second pill (second day) I literally was able to eat pizza............
So I came to the conclusion that if I had antibiotics earlier I wouldn't suffer that much. If you have antibiotics at home.... take them!!!!!!!
To answer your question... in 7 days as I told you I could eat , 10 days I was almost fine , 14 days I was like before. No feeling of pain or anything
I’m day 9 and I’m hurting so I’m sus😳
Me too!😫😫😫 I want to smoke so bad as well
@@Paradisefinest lol I’m fully recovered
