Should I Be Worried About The Burning In Chest And Sore Throat After Tonsillectomy?

Hi my name is chanlier, I'm 13 and I had a tonsillectomy at around 8 this morning and my chest kind of burns for te last few minutes. Is that normal, everything else is perfect. I have a slight sore throat and my ears hurt but it's normal. So about the pain?
