Adenoid infection and tonsillitis
I catch cough and cold often. My nose and pharynx become too dry during cold, but it cures on its own. Since such cough and cold creates a lot of disturbance I want to remove my tonsils and adenoids. Can I get the surgery done to get rid of such problems or is it done only under circumstances??
