Tonsillectomy
I was thinking about having my tonsils checked because of constant sore throat, sinus infections and sleep apnea. I had heard that removing tonsils and adenoids may fix those issues. My eight y/o son just his removed today for the same reasons and even though he is medicated, he is still in discomfort. He is a tough little guy and has a higher pain tolerance than myself. Now I am rethinking my own tonsillectomy as I heard the pain is worse the older one has the procedure.
Has anyone had their tonsils removed as an adult? On a scale of 1-10, with 10 almost unbearable pain, what was your pain level? As you can tell, I am a pansy.
