A member asked:
Is it normal to have a small amount of blood in the area where the tonsils were 8 days after surgery? should this cause burning when drinking water?

Yes: Both are normal. Contact your surgeon if there is active bleeding into your mouth.

Both symptoms are: Normal and expected. Chew some ice chips and take some tylenol (acetaminophen) for relief. Follow up with your ENT dr. Take care!
