Postoperative regular oral honey administration reduces postoperative pain and analgesic requirements in  tonsillectomy patients after the surgery. Mucosal damage occurs during varying amounts during tonsillectomy.

Honey is used as one of the oldest medicine. It has been used for medicinal purposes for more than 4000 years. Medical and therapeutic importance of honey has been recently rediscovered. Honey can be used for treatment for infected wounds and ulcers.

Components of honey


Honey is an acidic product (pH 4) with a variable chemical composition according to regions, seasons, geographic properties and the flowers from which it is derived.

The components of honey can be summarized in the following way:

  • 80% sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose, levulose, maltose, sucrose)
  • 17 to 20% water, and 4% of various other substances (pollen grains, proteins, enzymes, hydrogen peroxide, amino acids, organic acids, polyphenols, vitamins (except for vitamin A) minerals, and more than 100 volatile substances (alcohols, esters, aromatic substances)

Mechanism of biological action of honey


The useful biological effects of honey under two main headings can be summarized:

  • antiseptic effect
The antiseptic activity is based on the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), methylglycoxal (MGO), bee-defensin and hyperosmolarity.
  • remedial effect (effects about healing properties)
The above-mentioned epithelisan factors and vitamins can explain the effects of honey on the development of granulation tissue and the preparation of wound healing. There are many unknown factors or undiscovered factors may effect on antiseptik and remedial effects of honey.

Biological ectivities of honey is well konown as antitussive action, antioxidant activity, antimitotic activity, antibacterial activity and antiviral activity

There is no definite consensus on the frequency and frequency of use after the tonsillectomy. A small spoon (sugar spoon) honey can be swallowed slowly 3 times a day, or the same amount of honey can be taken slowly by mixing with water at normal temperature of 1 cup each time. I usually recommend to my tonsillectomy patients after 2 weeks eating honey. If you have diabetes or honey allergy, consult your doctor before your taking it.
