How many days to be discharged from the tonsillectomy? The 25-year-old girl often has sore throat, sore throat, phlegm, dry or cold weather, she has tonsils. Since I was young, my doctor advised me to cut it, but because I was too busy, I didn't cut it. During this time, I feel pain in the joints of the hands and feet and some other symptoms.

Hello doctor. May I ask if tonsillectomy is painful and how long does it take to fully recover? Looking forward to consulting your doctor. Thank you

Hello! Long-term chronic tonsillitis that frequently recurs during the year can easily cause complications of infection in the nasopharyngeal area, complications from the whole body such as: glomerulonephritis, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic heart disease .... Then only tonsillectomy is considered for treatment. Currently, the method of tonsillectomy with Coblator at Vinmec is being welcomed by patients who are evaluated as less pain, no bleeding, recovery and normal eating and drinking activities soon (from 3-5 days), the hospital stay is only 24 hours.
If possible, please go to Vinmec Health System facilities to be examined and receive specific advice from ENT doctors.
