Suggest Good Drink For Swelling Of Tonsils

My 11 year old grandson just got his tonsils and adnoids out and we just returned home. He also had a large mass behind the adnoids. He feels like his throat is closing and it is hard for him to breath. What is the best drink for the swelling. He also has sleep apenia. Thanks!

an antiseptic mouth gargle like betadine is preferable, although your symptoms would likely to require adeno tonsillectomy .
