Hi,
Generally speaking tonsil surgery don't cause the problem like closure of throat. You need to have given more detailed history about yourself and medical history.
Also, you need physical examination and investigations like imaging and endoscopy. Feel free to have consultation onboard on this plateform.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
