Is It Advisable To Listen Music For Long Periods With Moderate Volume Post Tonsillectomy And Septorhinoplasty?

So i have just had a tonsillectomy and a septorhinoplasty and was wondering would listening to long periods of music on a relatively moderate volume cause me any more pain as my nose is healing from the vibrations caused. it is how i like to relax and i am 5 days post surgery going stir crazy at home, have you got any recommendations on whether i should listen to music or not or if i should limit volume or time periods

Hi,
Thanks for query,
We have a connecting tube behind our tonsil to our ear called Eustachian tube connects naso pharynx to middle ear.
at present due to surgery the whole naso pharynx along with peri tonsillar area is inflammed may contaminated middle ear.
This may affect the drum while it vibrates for a long time.
It is better to avoid for few days.
Thanks.
