Question
How should one handle recurring tonsillitis?
Answer
Based on your description, it is advisable to consider a tonsillectomy. For children under the age of 4, the tonsils have a certain immune function, but for those over 6 years old, this function can be overlooked, and the surgery generally does not have significant side effects. The main considerations are the frequency and severity of the attacks, as well as the pros and cons of the surgery. If your child experiences frequent and severe attacks, it is recommended to consider a tonsillectomy. Tonsillectomy is a routine procedure in otolaryngology, and choosing a doctor with extensive experience is key. It is recommended to seek treatment at 301 or 304 Hospital.
