Im 18 years old and i just had my tonsillectomy not more than 12 hours ago and the pain is excrucitating. The vicodin seems to have no effect. and i feel like my uvula is too long and that i am going to choke on it or something. im actually really scared. i can almost keep down my food and i was wondering if any knew if i could eat some spicy foods? like boudan and hot sauce and stuff. and if you knew anything to take the pain away. even if its temporarily.
