What is the process of getting your tonsils and adenoids removed for a 3 year old. would she have to miss daycare after the surgery?how long?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Generally 1 week, if there are no complications and she is drinking and eating well. Most complications, such as bleeding and infection should be low risk by that time. I hope she does well. All the best.
