Why do my tonsils still hurt 15 days after surgery?

If the pain is still there 15 days after the tonsil surgery, if the pain is gradually relieved, it may be a normal phenomenon after the surgery and will gradually recover. If the pain symptoms are not relieved, but gradually aggravated, it can not be ruled out that it is caused by postoperative infection and other conditions.
1. Postoperative normal phenomenon: the pain of the surgical wound will gradually decrease as time passes and the wound gradually recovers. It is a mild pain sensation, which is considered as a normal recovery phenomenon. In addition, the need to eat from the inside of the mouth, stimulation of the surgical area, will also cause slight discomfort.
2. Postoperative infection: If the pain is obvious, and the mouth is accompanied by a bad odor, bloody taste, sputum with blood or pus sputum, and accompanied by severe pain in swallowing, it is necessary to strengthen the symptomatic treatment of anti-infection and so on.
There are many other causes of tonsil pain after 15 days of tonsil surgery, so we suggest that patients seek medical advice in a timely manner and follow the doctor’s instructions to do a systematic examination to make a clear judgment.
