Hi,

It seems to me like your tonsillectomy hasn’t gone right. I know that there are some cases where tonsillectomy is not done properly and patient has many issues later in life. Your five month is a very long period of time. I know that sometimes during the surgery surgeon can accidentally damage your taste bud and vocal cords. Have you considered of trying some herbal remedies? I know that peppermint tea is very helpful when it comes to irritations. Also you need to know that you need to drink a lot of water, at least 2 liters per day to keep your body well hydrated.

I hope that this was helpful in any way.

Did your issues ever get better? I’m almost 5 months out and still having issues too. I’m 39 and it’s so depressing. Thanks

Good night. Me, too. I’m going to a different ENT next month. Still so painful. Did it ever resolve?
