Hi, I am a 24 year old female nearly 4 weeks recovery post tonsillectomy surgery. A few days ago I noticed a hole on one of the pillars right where the scab used to be. I still have pain when swallowing on that side including ear pain (same amount, type, and location of pain during my recovery and no new symptoms). I have consulted with my ENT surgeon about this and they prescribed me pain meds and will review in a week regarding the pain. My scabs on the side with the hole only came off a few days ago so it was quite slower than the average person. However, I am extremely worried if this hole will never close as it is quite uncomfortable and I really don’t want to have this hole forever. Will this hole heal by itself and close? Thank you so much.
