Eating after tonsil surgery

Should I be worried that my son wants to eat all regular food after he had his tonsils and adenoids removed today? He's acting like nothing ever happened. I guess I should be happy that its going to be a quick recovery.

Should I let him eat what he wants? The doc said he wont want to eat so it wont be a problem but he does.

When I had mine out they MADE me eat proper food!
It's good because it stops a coating building up an therefore prevents infection.
At least that's what they told me!

The pain is the worse with that a few days after. A scab type thing builds up then after a few days it starts to fall off and that is when it hurts.

I would not let him eat things that can "poke" the scab that is trying to build up.

So more like pasta, hot dogs type of stuff. Not like pretzels and stuff.
