Tonsil Help Please!?!
Question: I recently got my tonsils out, 4 days ago to be exact. I'm 17 and I am going through this like a little kid...I feel like total crap! My throat is sore (duh), I have an earache, I feel pukey, and I did puke yesterday...which sucked! I keep spitting up little amounts of blood here and there...Am I okay?? How long will I feel this way?

It's a rough procedure and you'll feel like crap for the next few days and the antibiotics that you should still be taking will heighten this feeling (your ear probably aches from the swelling and inflammation in the surrounding area). However, you need to take them until they're gone, as the doctor prescribed.
Eat pudding, popsicles, milkshakes, etc. and use Tylenol (or prescribed medication) for the pain. The small amounts of blood are normal for this point after the surgery. If it gets worse or large amounts of bright, red blood pours or large clots form, call the doctor for further instructions.
eat ice cream and take vicoden
I dont know how long you will feel like this but when my friend had her tonsils out she ate loads of ice cream, she felt really bad too! Hope you feel better soon!
i think you have 2 to 3 more days of feeling like this, at least the first 4 have past, you wont be feeling those again......
