HI
Well come to HCM
Post operative pain after the tonsillectomy remained for some time and this comes around soon as long as diet is concern you can have any semi solid or liquid diet, non steroid anti-inflammatory drug and antibiotic need to be taken with full course this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps. (Comment:- post operative event should be taken seriously it should not be neglected)
