Tonsillectomy (tonsil surgery) how long does the pain last & how do I deal with the pain?
Please do not answer if you are under the age of 25 because my ENT said that after the age of 25, tonsil surgery pain is increased by tenfold. Don’t tell me how after 4 or 5 days you started getting better because I am on day 6 and it is getting worse. Is anyone else having the same excrutiating experience that I am having? If so, please tell me how you are coping with the pain. I am 27 years old, 6′3", 220 lbs and I have a very high pain tolerance but this is absolutely ridiculous. It hurts to breathe, I can’t swallow water because my tongue is swollen, and I especially can’t eat. Somebody please help me.
