What Causes Severe Ear Pain After A Tonsillectomy?
Hello, I had a tonsillectomy last Monday 7/11/2016. My recovery has been very rough but today my voice is a little stronger, I can eat foods that are a little harder than liquids, and the pain has gone down. However a I have one problem, there is a big red bump sticking out from the upper left corner next to my uvula. It hurts really bad and it cause intense ear pain when touched. What is that?
