Hello, the baby after VA treatment will often appear wheezing and have bad breath. The reason is that after removing the VA tissue, it will cause inflammation in the nasal mucosa: Increased secretions + pseudomembranous detachment in the mucosal tissue after surgery. This phenomenon will gradually disappear after 2 weeks. You should have her check with an otolaryngologist.
