Tonsillectomy Recovery Photos

Tonsillectomy patients often peer into their throats and wonder, “is this normal?” What they see is never pretty. For some it can be quite disturbing. Since I’ve started the forum, the description of post tonsillectomy throat has been one of the most common discussions. Believe it or not, people send me pictures of their throats all the time. Of course I appreciate it. Here is s series of photos from one tonsillectomy patient from each day of her tonsillectomy recovery. A warning: These tonsillectomy recovery photos may not be for the faint of heart! To enlarge the pictures simply click on the image.
