I had a standard Tonsillectomy done last week, Thursday the 26th to be exact. I've had a lot of surgery done before, but damn this one has definatley been the most painful by far, and I'm not even close to the end of my recovery! I was prescribed vicodin for the pain, which got upped to oxycontin 10mg the next day, but it still hurts A LOT. I was just wondering when the pain of this whole ordeal is going to come to an end, I am currently on day 6 post op, was just wondering when i can expect some relief?
