A member asked:
My daughter just had a tonsillectomy, and this is day 4, she is throwing up, has a fever, looks very pale, except her cheeks are bright red?

Not normal after T/A: It sounds like she has an infection, which could be a complication of the surgery or an unrelated infection. Either way, she should be checked out. I would start with the surgeon that did the tonsillectomy.
