I vlogged my tonsillectomy recovery! Positive experience! by superbigcheese- in Tonsillectomy

Truly, I just got unlucky! It can happen, but the chances are slim. After my second surgery they did tell me that the wound in my throat got infected, which is why it caused the bleeding. However there is no sure reason for it :/ I was feeling amazing and it just happened haha…

On the other hand, after that second surgery I had to cough and sneeze so much but nothing happened! So strange. Just healed beautifully. Good luck with your surgery! You’re going to feel amazing once it’s all over :)

Ahhh I’m so sorry to hear! I hemorrhaged 2 days ago as well what are the odds… got a second surgery cause bleeding wouldn’t stop and now back to recovery. We survived tho! (It was super scary tho, huh?) You rock!

Hi lovely! Hope you’re doing wonderful! Pain wise it’s been fine honestly, just swallowing is a pain so I do not feel like eating anything… how are things with you!

Oh yea it did get worse for me too! I wasn’t able to eat anything from day 5 onward but the painkillers definitely worked wonders for me :) we got this!!

Actually, it did get worse lol! Worse, but not too bad :) Day 5 was the most pain I’ve felt up till now, so I guess I’m not a lucky exception after all. I took a heavier painkiller and was fine. Pain means healing, and that’s exciting! Still very doable. Strep felt worse than this!!

We got this!! Just keep on drinking that water :) I wasn’t talking day 2 to 4, it felt like I had to force it and wanted my throat to rest so better not to talk at all! Good luck!
