Miley Cyrus wouldn't cut her uvula because if she did she'd have problems singing since your uvula helps you produce a vibrato, which is a wavy up and down sound. And your uvula is also your gag reflex and helps it so when you eat food doesn't go down your air passage.

Why is a tonsillectomy ok for kids not adults?
Some adults do have tonsillectomies. It's not that tonsillectomies are only suitable for kids, it's that if the person is going to need their tonsils out they will generally know about it when they are quite young (too many throat infections already so it's decided they should be removed). The patients just tend to find out early so don't keep their tonsils to adulthood, so never have them removed when they're adults.

I am 25 yrs old and getting my tonsils removed. Is a 16hr flight possible 15 days after a tonsillectomy?
I am 25 and I am getting my tonsils out about a week before Thanksgiving. My doctor said the pain is worse on the 7th day for adults. The only thing I would worry about if I was you was that deferred ear pain that I've heard about. I'm sure the 15th day will not be too horrible pain-wise. He told me I could go back to work in a week....
