Is Flying Safe After Tonsillectomy Re-cauterization?
Dear doctor, I hav had my tonsils removed 18 days ago, but at the day 11 I have started bleeding, and have been re-cauterized. 7 days has pased, and after 7 days more I am traveling via plain (11 hours flight) to the Mexiko. Is it safe to fly? And is it safe to take a vacation? I am planning to take Dicynone just in case. I am really afraid of bleeding again. Thank You in advance.

Hello
I see no reason at this point to say you shouldn't fly or go on vacation.
If there's no more bleeding at this point then there's no reason to think the bleeding will recur, but ask your surgeon about this just to be on the safe side
