A minimum of seven days.. Once in 4 hours should be sufficient.. Till you see normal reddish lining at the tonsil region... At that you can rinse your mouth with water after each time you eat something

Hello practo user
Normally gargles are suggested for 7days post surgery thrice daily
Sometimes you may need it for longer duration
This can be suggested after examination of your throat
