These days insurance companies will not cover to get your tonsils removed unless you have tonsillitis i think its 6 times in one year…I keep being one short…ugh
The only time you need them to be removed is if they constantly cause problems…like if they are always enlarged or infected…good luck!
and yes, it can also lead to an ear infection!
you get sick a lot over and over again. yes they can cause ear infections
