I had mine removed when I was 13!. It wasn't completely horrible!. I was back at school in a week!. I ate a lot of popsicles and ice cream the first few days, but was quickly back onto solid food!. Good luck to you both!Www@Answer-Health@Com
adenoids grow back!!?!!?!!?!!? Did they not get the root bud when they took them out the first time!? That will of course hurt and suck for him! Just keep him comfy and don't rush the recovery if he needs to rest for 2 weeks, let him!.
I don't know how you are going to get him to take his medicine though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
