It wont hurt while they are removing them as you will probably be knocked out with drugs. it will however hurt to talk and even swallow afterwards
no it does not...but you can't speak for a few days...and you'll only be able to have soup, water and ice cream for a week...it is worth it...I haven't had a sore throat in 20 years
I'm 14 and i had my tonsils out YESTERDAY. i went in at 8am, i had to answer a few questions but then at 10am, they took me down to the operating room. they put "magic" cream on my hand to stop you from feeling the injection. i felt the injection, but it didn't hurt, which i was amazed about. before i knew it, i was being told to wake up. as soon as i woke up, i sat up and was eating and drinking! the nurses were amazed at how quickly i recoverd. i even ate jam Sandwiches. by 5pm, i was back home, i ate pasta. it didn't hurt, it feels quite nice to eat and swallow. i wasnt in much pain yesterday, and I'm still not today. i woke up alot in my sleep lastnight, but i took a drink of water to bed, and whenever i woke up, i had a few sips of that and then just drifted back to sleep. I've lost my apertite, but i still eat.. just to keep the muscules in my throat working. i don't find it hard to eat, as long as you eat them in small sections. cold milk on your throat really helps, i found that it sooths your throat. so far, so good. don't let any bad comments put you off, because I'm only 14, and I'm such a wimp.i'd cry over a paper cut, but honestly, this isn't pain! thankyou, Emma x
(thank you so much Emma i am happy there are people out there for who it doesnt hurt too much, i hope that's me! i have read so many bad stories about tonsillectomies and i was being very very dissuaded. thank youuu)
