Should I Be Worried About The Tissue Falling Off During Tonsillitis?
I am recovering from tonsillitis (I'm an adult) and I have pieces of tissue (solid with blood, pus and tonsil tissue) hanging and falling off of my tonsils. Is this a normal part of the healing process? The pain is much less today than it has been the last few days, although I still have a higher temperature than normal.

Hello
No., this is not normal and it is likely that you are having an infection and this can cause a lot of bleeding . Please dont delay and meet your doctor as soon as possible. you will need antibiotics and supervised medical care.
