Question:
She underwent a throat operation, and the doctor prohibited her from fasting.
Answer:
Yes, so what is required of her? The answer is that what is obligatory for her regarding the days she broke her fast due to the throat operation is to make up the days she did not fast. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:185] This is an illness for which she broke her fast, so she must make up the days she did not fast, and she owes nothing more than that.

Answer:
Yes, so what is required of her? The answer is that what is obligatory for her regarding the days she broke her fast due to the throat operation is to make up the days she did not fast. Allah the Exalted said:
and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days
وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ
