Tonsillectomy

2024-12-08 09:22:08
I am suffering from tonsillitis very frequently. I am getting throat pain and mouth ulcer and difficulty in swallowing. It is recurring several times in a year and becomes unbearable. I have got asthma and this tonsillitis tigers asthma attack each time and makes life miserable. Is it wise to make tonsillectomy operation at this age to become free from tonsillitis. Does it make it risky for me. This primarily because every month I have to take several pain killers , throat paint and antibiotics and salt water girgaling which are very painful

Physical examination is needed sir. Grade3-4 tonsillitis you can go for surgical removal.  Or medical management will be fine
