This is a video from day 6 of my post operation recovery. Today started out with me waking up very quickly with the worst pain I have ever felt in my throat. Now, I have had bad soar throats my whole life but today was the worst I have ever experienced. A few pain pills later and I calmed down and was able to go back to bed. I think that because I am breathing from my mouth at not rather then my nose (I also had a surgery to fix a deviated septum the same time as my tonsillectomy. I think that when I mouth breath at night it drys out the scabs where my tonsils used to be and causes some kind of irritation.
You can see what might be a little blood in the back of my throat on the scabs. Am i worried? Not yet but if I continue to see blood and wake up in this kind of pain im going to be sure to call my doctor.
