A.P.
Ha LOL !! My daughter just had this done on the 10th of Oct and she is also 5. We bought a TON of Popciclyes and yogurt and puddings anything that is soft and not hot!! Stay away from HOT things have plenty of Ibprofin avail. She will probably be sent home with a Rx for Tylenol w codine This was very important the first 48 hours, thats all I gave her, also if you need a refill or find that the Ibprofin isnt doing it dont be afraid to ask your dr for a refill!! I had three refills because she was in a lot of pain and the regular Ibprofin wasnt doing it for her. All she did for the first week was lay around, no running no jumping or any type of fast moving for 3 weeks, that could possible burst open the the coderized blood vessels in their throat and could cause you to take her back in to have them redone/closed up!! No good!! My daughter was back to school within 2 weeks but under restrictions as far as playtime/ recess / gym class went. If you have any other questions email me at ____@____.com I would be happy to help!! Good luck
