This is only my opinion, but I got my tonsil's taken out when I was 11, and I dont ever remember having any problem like that. You said 5 weeks ago, I honestly think you should go back to your doctor and get checked. I really dont remember anything like that happening to me. I couldn't eat for about 5 weeks, but I never had anything come out my nose. :( let me know how it goes!!

Tonsiliectomy - So Far So Good
I had my tonsils out 7 days ago. Worst thing is taking the painkillers on time during the night etc when ur tired. When u forget or are asleep and wake up the pain is a 1000s worse than usual . I vomited shortly after the tonsolectomy because of the blood from the op going into my stomach and the morphine for the pain. But when I vomited nothing came thru my nose or anywhere near that airway. Doesnt sound right to me and any doctor that sais its normal I wouldnt beleive and push for a 2nd opinion or to be referred to a consultant. These people have to be pushed and repeatatly communicated with to take you serious so if u really want to get it investigated then dont take no for an answer and dont let time go by especially since you do not know yourself whats happening with your own body.

Still Happeing
Hi thanks for ur reply, wasnt the pain unberable I cryd for 8 days straight at 3am becoz the pain killers would ware off and it was hurting just like u said 1000 times more, I went around the world to search for strong pain killers that came in small capsule size coz it was hard to swallow, thank god I had my mother to help me but I wuldnt suggest anyone go through it lol not worth it but I will try tell the doc who did it becoz ive got a cold now the flu and when my nose is runny it goes in my mouth instead of out my nose, I get bad luck I think coz I really wanted it dne evryhting went rong from hemoroid after surgery that opened up to this. But ill try see another doc
