A member asked:
Is it normal to be constipated after having your tonsils removed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your constipation is caused by the same problem for which your tonsils were removed. I know that this sounds strange but i would be willing to bet lousy diet is the underlying cause of both.
