Have Pain In Throat When Having Something Cold. Had Tonsillectomy Earlier. What Could It Be?
I had a tonsillectomy almost a month to the day, and I am 29 year old female. I had my post op appointment last week, and my ENT said everything looked great. However, now every time I have a cold drink, I get this excruciating pain in my left ear only. What could it be? Is this normal a month after getting tonsils removed at my age?

You can take mutivitamins and do regular gargle , keep your mouth clean and in addition chew chewing gums so that the muscles work actively and the nerves heal .
If in doubt reply back,You can reply back after 10 days whether there is improvement or not.
