On December 22nd I had my tonsils out. This is a video documentary of the before (Post Op) and right after the surgery. My mother and my niece were there to help support me through this very painful process! Thanks to my mom, niece, and boyfriend for helping and supporting me out during this entire experience!! :)

Sorry no surgery pics!! They would never allow for my family to video that!

  • Does it hurt i am 15 and have to get them out and im really scared please write back im SOO scared

  • @stevenbreig69 It does hurt, but just stick with it. Over time you will be feeling just fine and in the long run be happy that you had them taken out. Most likely if your doctor is telling you that you need them out then they are doing you more harm then good. So just remind yourself after every day that you are one more day closer to being normal again.

  • This video really helped me a lot because right now I'm facing a tonsillectomy because my tonsils have been swollen for a matter of days this was an uplifting in my burden thank you!

  • @suppzypaul Good luck! I can tell you that it will hurt more than anything you've ever had done..and it will most likely hurt for weeks pretty badly!! But the overall outcome will be worth it! I used to always have swollen tonsils and would always randomly wake up with sore throats. It has been a million times better since they are gone!! Just ask for the pill version of the pain meds! I got sick of the taste of that stuff and couldn't handle it!!

  • how it feels?

  • @ustazcupids rough!! It hurts a lot, but you get over it after a few weeks and then better than ever! No more sore throats!!

see all
