Tonsils Removal Surgery
Tonsillectomy, the surgical removal of the tonsils, is a common procedure aimed at alleviating symptoms caused by recurrent or chronic tonsillitis, sleep-disordered breathing, or other complications associated with enlarged or infected tonsils. Typically performed under general anesthesia, the surgeon removes the tonsils through the mouth, using specialized instruments to dissect and excise the tissue. Tonsillectomy is often recommended for individuals experiencing frequent sore throats, difficulty swallowing, sleep apnea, or recurrent ear infections due to enlarged tonsils. While the procedure is generally safe, it carries risks like bleeding and infection, and a thorough discussion with a healthcare provider is necessary to determine the appropriateness of tonsil removal for each patient's specific condition.
