Hi!!!.!.!.you will be in operation no longer than 20 minutes!.!.& in most cases the longest you will be in the hospital is no longer than 10 hour or so ,that is if you dont have any complications,!.!.!.& because of your age theres a BIG chance that you WONT bleed after surgery opposed to the way the last person emphasized !.!.& you won't have complications!.!.!.you should recover no longer than a week or so!.!.& it may feel a bit hard to swallow for a short period of time!.!.but this is definately the best time to stock up on ice cream & slushy drinks!.!.!. stay away from orange juice & any othe citrus drinks ,they may cause irratation during your recovery!.!.!.
it WILL past very soon!!!!.!.& you will feel better than ever!.!.!.

Eat lots of popsicles and some ice cream(Not too much because it can make you get phlegmy-like a lot of goo in your throat) Drink a lot of water or gatorade!. Even if you don't feel like it because my son (age 12) had to go back to the hospital for dehydration!. His stomach was upset and he couldn't drink anything!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
