Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
Is it normal for a 6-year-old to start bleeding when throwing up on the 4th day after having a tonsillectomy?
Answered by Dr. Omar Sowilem
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Bleeding after tonsillectomy can occur, but it’s usually a limited issue and can be treated conservatively. Although it’s common enough to be anticipated, its exact occurrence can’t be predicted. In rare cases, additional treatment or surgery may be required, but it’s typically well-controlled.
Thanks
