I just had my tonsils and adenoids removed it's been about 3-4 weeks and now i have a small yellow growth near the surgical sight what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I think: you may be noticing a SUTURE (STITCH) which will dissolve with time! If no other symptoms ignore it! If it does not get smaller in a few weeks..get the area inspected by your PCP (Primary Care Provider) Hope this helps! Dr Z
