Is It Unusual To Gain Weight After Tonsillectomy?
Is it unusual for an adult to gain weight after tonsillectomy? I was 33 when I had my to tonsils removed and despite exercising and restricting caloric intake I kept on gaining weight. I had chronic tonsillitis for most part of my life - could that explain it?

take plenty of water,fresh fruits,high fiber diet,leafy veg,soya products.
do swimming,cycling.
consult physician for tablet orlistat,lorcaserin.
for recurrent tonsillitis consult E N T surgeon.
