Should i get my tonsils taken out?

Question

My tonsils have been swollen for years and they are almost touching my uvula and now im starting to get those awful tonsil stones on a daily.... should i get them removed ?

Answer 1

yes you should have got it done already

Answer 2

you need to go get it checked out by a doctor and see what they tell you I had mine taken out when I was like in first grade and i think that was what happened to me

Answer 3

I had mine taken out when I was about 7 or 8, and it really wasn't that bad! All I can remember is having the doctor tell me count to 10, which went like 1-2 *sleep*. After the operation I didn't have to much pain, and even the weeks following weren't so bad either. Added bonus from removing your tonsils, they prescribe you ice cream >:) ! Currently 21 years of age now, have no health problems related to the operation what so ever. Mind you this is just my personal experience! Consult a proper doctor before removing them and also consult a Ben & Jerry's  expert :D Hope you get it sorted !

Answer 4

Yes, honey, you should. It always keep swollen and inflaming, which will make you vulnerable to disease. So the soon you take them off, the better for your health.

I removed them by a surgery when I was 5 year old. It's a simple surgery and won't be painful too much . Don't worry about that.

Good luck !
