I got my tonsils out the 20th and i was wondering how long it will be until i can drink alochol again?

Depends: The answer depends on your healing, and is best answered by your surgeon who did the procedure. If you are in america, and it looks like you are 16, the answer would be 5 years, as i believe in most states, if not all, the legal drinking age for alcohol is 21. Best wishes.
