does it hurt when tonsils are being removed?I'm 14 and I keep getting strep throat and other sickness that involve having a sore throat. The doctor suggested i get my tonsils removed and I wanted to know if it would be painful. And if the age affects how painful the procedure is.

Well, first off, I'm assuming that you will be under general anesthesia, so it certainly won't hurt while they're being removed. And then, afterward, you'll have a sore throat for a few days ... just a good excuse to eat lots of ice cream.
