Your doctor has recommended that you - or your child - undergo surgery to remove you or your child's tonsils. But what does that actually mean?

Your tonsils are located in the throat at the back of your mouth - one on either side of the uvula. Together, your tonsils work to help fight infection entering the body through the mouth. They are part of your immune system.

Occasionally tonsils themselves become infected. This condition is called tonsillitis.
Medical Malpractice
During an attack of tonsillitis, the tonsils can become inflamed and can cause fever and body aches. In addition, tonsillitis can increase the chance of other complicating illnesses, including:

Enlargement of the lymph nodes in the neck.

Enlargement of the tonsils causing difficulty breathing or swallowing.

Recurrent bronchitis. And other conditions caused by infection.
Medical Malpractice
In most cases, a doctor will recommended the surgical removal of tonsils only when tonsillitis becomes chronic and begins to interfere with daily life.

Luckily, in most people, the immune system is more than able to compensate for the loss of the tonsils and having them removed will not in any way weaken you. You should make sure you have spoken to your doctor about the particular reasons behind his or her recommendation.
Medical Malpractice
And remember, the final decision is up to you. No one can force you to undergo a surgical procedure against your will.
