Question

The baby’s tonsils are particularly large, causing difficulty breathing during sleep at night. Is it necessary to undergo a tonsillectomy? Does general anesthesia have any effects on children?

Answer

It is recommended that the baby consult with a doctor. If the situation requires it, a tonsillectomy can be performed. While general anesthesia does have certain effects on children, it should be carefully considered and professional medical advice should be sought. If snoring is severe, surgery should be performed early to avoid affecting breathing and brain development.
