I had my tonsils taken off 3 weeks ago.
I feel very happy since they troubled me a lot for 10 years. I had so many passes inside and i was drinking it all!!! I was non stop stomach problems. Now I feel clear.
But I just wonder why I am feeling a bit of ear pain time to time, or after a small glass of brandy, next day I feel I am having this mucus inside my throat that I have to keep swollowing and it keeps coming again. Do you think I have swollen throat now? Shoud I worry after the operation? Also the cold weather isn't helping. But I am fine, just I feel there is something in my neck through down part since the operation. It feels pasta stuck in the throat, if you know what i mean!
Please help if you know anyone adult who has taken them off and what I should expect??? Strange feeling! Before I had one tonsil big and other small and I know I would feel dropping down while I lied in bed. Now it feels something missing and don't know what!

i had my tonsils out when i was about 17 and i will tell you that the recovery was quite long. i had them out in december...and for the rest of the winter and even the NEXT winter.... i had a bad time being in the cold weather. the cold air would make me gag horribly! i too recall having some of the weird feeling that you describe for longer than i thought they would be happening.
as an adult...it is common knowledge a tonsilectomy is MUCH harder to recover from than the recovery is for a child! hang in there!

I am very sorry. I had my tonsils taken out when I was 2! All I remember is the doc telling me to eat ice cream a lot. Try that! You never know?!?!?! XD
