Fasting Time and Pain After Tonsil Surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at whether the length of time patients fast (don't eat or drink) before tonsil removal surgery affects how much pain they experience afterward. Researchers hope to find the best fasting approach to reduce post-surgery discomfort.
