do you think healing time and pain process after tonsillectomy hugely depends on how big your tonsils used to be and how and how far they were positioned? i'm starting to think so because i looked at a recovery of someone online and their tonsils weren't that big before they were removed, the area where the tonsils were after being removed wasn't that deep or big either, making the whole process heal after.
where as me, mine were very huge, and very deeply inside at the back of my throat. and my process hasn't been that great, still lots of pain.
