Is tonsil removal a bad thing?

My mom suggested that I get my tonsils removed, but my friend tells me that my voice may change if I do get them removed. I’m in an Advanced Womens’ Chorale at school and I’m concerned about this, is the voice changing tonsil rumor true?

Are there any remedies for these?

My son is 5 yrs old and had problems with extremely enlarged tonsils and adenoids.
The tonsils have come for the first time in his entire 5 yrs but the the adenoid problem persists from last two years. He snores during sleep and has a hard time breathing at night sometimes. He also has a problem with choking. The pediatric ENT Advised us today go for the surgery to remove both adenoids and tonsils. Is it better just to get it done together or just go for adenoid surgery right now ? Please advise us.

so…i have a bad sore throat, but Absolutely no other symptoms, its not tonsillitis….

thanks

I was diagnosed with bacterial tonsillitis today so am reading up on the internet about it. Strep throat has the same symptoms and means of treatment .. is it the same thing?

Does a regrown tonsil surgery hurt as much?

I just turned 51 years old and had my tonsils and adenoids removed in 1961. The doctor had left tissue on my right side and a tonsil "pocket" grew back many years ago. My ENT scheduled surgery this Tuesday to remove it and a questionable tumor in my throat. I have been on the computer all day looking up adult tonsil surgery and reading all the horror stories. Will my "regrown" tonsil removal hurt as much as an adult regular tonsil/adenoid removal? Is there anything I can do to control clotting or bleeding entering my stomach?
Thank you for all reasonable answers.. :D
