So, I'm on day 12 after my tonsillectomy and up until yesterday, it seemed like almost all the scabs were gone and my throat looked mostly pink. But today, I've noticed that this white stuff is showing up again. Should I be worried about that or is it normal?
It is normal to see some white patches reappear in your throat after a tonsillectomy, even after the scabs have fallen off. This could be due to the healing process and is usually not a cause for concern. However, if you experience severe pain, bleeding, or difficulty swallowing, it is important to contact your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can continue to manage your symptoms with pain relief medication such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) as prescribed by your doctor.

I'm dealing with a swollen lymph node in my neck and it's really tender and painful when I touch it. I don't have any current infections, but I did have an ear infection that lasted for two weeks. It's been about 20 days since that cleared up. I dont have any unexplained bumps or infections now, and my throat isn't sore. My lips are chapped, though, but that might just be from the cold weather. I'm worried about why my lymph node is swollen. Could this be a sign of cancer?
It is possible that the swollen lymph node in your neck is a result of your recent ear infection. Lymph nodes can become swollen and tender as they work to fight off infections in the body. In your case, the lymph node may still be reacting to the previous ear infection even though the infection itself has resolved. It is less likely that the swelling is due to cancer, especially since you do not have any other concerning symptoms such as unexplained bumps, ongoing infections, or persistent sore throat. The chapped lips could indeed be a result of the cold weather. To help reduce the swelling and tenderness in your lymph node, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. You can also apply a warm compress to the area for comfort. If the swelling persists or if you develop any new symptoms, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
