Healing Time Lapse After Tonsillectomy: 0-29 Days in 60 Seconds

Video shows a time lapse of what the throat looks like after tonsillectomy surgery over 29 consecutive days. Generative AI was used to smoothly show appearance in between days.

The surgery was performed in a young adult for chronic tonsillitis. Appearance at all time points is NORMAL without any infection. The main areas of concern for most patients undergoing tonsillectomy healing is the swollen uvula and white eschar that appears, but as you can see here, that is expected and usual. White eschar may or may not be present on the uvula. Hopefully this video provides reassurance on normal recovery after tonsil removal.
