i have strep throat at least 6 times a year all year and i was wondering if i get my tonsils removed if my chance of getting strep throat will lower?

and i also get tonsil stones and was wondering if those will go away after i get my tonsils removed.

and is there an age limit on getting tonsils removed? im seventeen and my mom said that theres more health problems that could happen the older i get….idk tho

i was in hospital 8 days with tonsillitis only got out today but when u looked at my tonsil at home there is white puss and its kinda hard to swallow??? any ideas i have on 8 days of iv antibiotics is it still infected? im meant to have my tonsil removed tuesday but dunno if they will remove the tonsil if infected any ideas???

I understand what they’re made of and how to get rid of them, but why would someone who is 21 years old, has never had a tonsil stones in his life before this year, start getting them once or twice a month when he hasn’t changed ANYTHING – my diet is the same, my routine is the same, my toothpaste is the same, I haven’t changed ANYTHING about my lifestyle between the time I used to get no tonsil stones and the time I started getting them frequently.

What’s going on? And how can I make sure I stop getting them?

my tonsils are swollen all the time and been thinking of getting them taken out but what are the effects of this is there more good then bad? A doctor once told me the reason they are always swollen is because my sinuses are always dripping on them, that’s another thing my sinuses are always congested. Is there something that will make my sinusis better there for not making my tonsil swollen all the time? Open to all ides opinion,etc. TIA

I’ve been taking the antibiotic for 2 days now with no change in symptoms. How long will it be before the symptoms disappear?

please help give every detail you can

I have been having tonsil stones come up about once a week for the past two years and they are becoming a problem. I am 13 years old and I was just wondering if maybe a tonsillectomy is right for me.

Like a home remedy that doesn’t hurt that much. I have seen numerous sites that say there is a magical cure and I want everyone to know. Then they try to get you to buy a book from them. What is a good way. Not like poking or squeezing. I have a very sensitive gag reflex.

Maybe a silly question…

My toddler has a rash all over his body, has a high temperature (over 40C at times) and a red ear. We took him to the doctors this morning and were referred to hospital to see a pediatrician who after looking at his throat said he has tonsillitis and that the rash looks viral. We’ve been given some throat spray and told to keep giving him Calpol to keep his temperature down.

So is tonsillitis the cause of the problem (rash, fever, loss of appetite etc)? Or just another symptom of having a virus?

please help give every detail you can
