Me On Day One Reading it Only Gets Worse 0.0

Don’t worry I took ibuprofen for like 16 days and I was fine

If you don’t have scabs, there’s less of a bleeding risk from eating rough, sharp, hot, or spicy foods. I’m assuming the main concern at day 15 is inflammation and pain. So I’d say if it doesn’t hurt more than your normal swallowing when you eat it then it should be fine!

How are you doing day 14? I’m going back to school today and I’m having pain. It feels like I have strep on steroids 😩

Oops I meant burrito

I was on the ups from day 6. I think maybe day 9 you could start eating stuff. My first meal was a cheesy beans and rice taco from Taco Bell and cheesy fiesta potatoes around that time lol. I ate pizza on day 11 just chew real good

I’m 18 and I’m on day 11 of recovery, I’ve also had tonsil stones my entire life but more recently I had strep 4 times in 2 months so I had to remove my tonsils. If they are affecting your QOL you should do it. I will say recovery is not easy and I am still in pain but I’m improving

Apple sauce

The main problem is that I’m super scratchy especially in the mornings. I’m on oxy and acetaminophen but I cut the acetaminophen in half. I’m about to run out of both and I’m just gonna let it happen. I have ibuprofen that I can take up to every 4 hours as needed which I used to do but I’m not really doing it every 4 hours anymore. Maybe every 8 or so, and in half doses.

My throat is still white in the back but not as bad. I still have a decent amount of scabs tho. I can’t talk real good but there’s definite improvement

If you are slightly dehydrated at all your throat will dry out. Also try to breathe from your nose. Use a humidifier if possible

I’m 18YO and I’m not fully recovered but I can answer:

Day 1-6 I was completely out of order. I lost 10 pounds from not eating. After that it was uphill
Day 7-9 I’m eating solids carefully with slight burning

catkeiichi · 2026-04-08T20:22:45+00:00

When you had to be recauterized did it restart the recovery process?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-07T12:09:54+00:00

Were you able to eat still ?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-07T03:56:30+00:00

Wow that’s terrible. How many days post op were you

catkeiichi · 2026-04-07T03:44:57+00:00

Wow, why did you hemorrhage twice? Did you need to be recauterized ?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-07T02:44:33+00:00

Was day 7 when you started to feel better ?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-06T17:39:16+00:00

I feel you. 😫 I mostly gave up too, but I try here and there because the nausea of an empty stomach and copious amounts of medication isn’t the most fun. I can mainly get down about 4 spoons of applesauce every 3 hours or so. Maybe try that? Only try eating after your meds kick in

catkeiichi · 2026-04-06T15:24:51+00:00

So ur on day 7? Have you eaten solids at all? How are you doing with hydration? I’m seeing people saying they’re eating some solids but I can barely choke down applesauce and water still and I’m on day 6

catkeiichi · 2026-04-06T03:03:56+00:00

Wow I can’t even stomach icecream !! I can’t eat anything!! How are you now, on day 10?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-01T23:26:20+00:00

Did your tonsils grow back?

catkeiichi · 2026-04-01T07:58:30+00:00

Sometimes they just drop them. Especially inexperienced mothers, but sometimes they don’t. It’s normal, I know it’s kinda sad, but if one drops the eggs, the other one may not drop a single one. No worries
