Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain, Severe Cough And Bleeding
I had my tonsils taken out yesterday. After surgery on my way to recovery I apparently had a coughing fit and they had to take me back in to recauterize because I had started bleeding badly. Today my chest and back are hurting when I take a breath and sounds raspy. Should I be worried?

Hello,
Feeling discomfort in chest and while breathing is common after tonsillectomy. If you have bleeding or spitting blood you should go immediately to ER.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
