Do you think my little brother could get sicker before he gets his tonsils removed?

His tonsils have been badly infected for a while, a few days ago he had a doctor's appointment and I knew when he showed me them that the doctor would want him to get his tonsils removed.

I'm a bit worried because of how long recovery can take, and how bad it will be if he loses his job (I know they can't fire him for being out of work from the recovery for the surgery), and something is going on with my .

Can he get more sick ? I really don't know what I would do if he did got really sick, is bad enough when it's not something poor kid.

    Most tonsilectomies are outpatient these days, have him schedule it on a day off or if he does not work weekends have him do it on Friday and he should be fine by Monday.
