Question
What should I eat after a tonsillectomy?
Answer
It is advised that parents not be overly anxious. The child’s diet should consist of easily digestible, soft foods and should not be eaten too quickly. Avoid stimulating odors and take precautions against colds. Keep the room well-ventilated and adjust the air conditioning temperature to be comfortable, not too low. In case of discomfort, bleeding, or swelling, promptly visit the original hospital where the surgery was performed. Schedule regular follow-up appointments. Wishing the child a healthy recovery.
