Pushchair for recovering 5 year old?

[Bookworm85]

My son is due to have his tonsils out. I do not drive and do not have help from friends and family to get and do things for me very much.
I'm not sure how much he will he suffering but I do know it is painful and lethargic and he needs to rest as much as possible for 2 weeks.
Do you think it will be unacceptable or dramatic to try and get hold of a stroller for him to use if I need to go to shops or to appointments and emergencies or does anyone else have any more tips or can tell me how much he will be suffering?
Thanks

hi my 6 year old daughter has literally just had her tonsils out. It was a very stressful experience for both of us and yes day 5/6 after the operation was horrible. I was lucky and had support and a g.p. who at day 3 when she was in pain even after paracetamol & Ibuprofen gave her codeine on top.
After the op they are meant to be kept away from any public places for 2 weeks to reduce the risk of infection. A pushchair if you have to go out is a good idea ( my daughter became tired very quickly). If you can get hold of one a three wheeler buggy is ideal. My daughter is a tall 6 year old but still managed to just about fit in her younger brothers urban detour 3 wheeler and was comfortable and it was not to hard to push.
I wish you both the very best for the op and a speedy recovery. xxx
