Tonsillitis and tonsillitis are actually the same disease and there is no difference between them. Tonsillitis mainly refers to the non-specific inflammation of the tonsils, including acute tonsillitis and also chronic tonsillitis. The main symptoms of acute tonsillitis are sore throat, fever, painful swallowing, etc. Some patients have severe symptoms such as difficulty opening their mouths, difficulty breathing, and serious lesions such as parapharyngeal abscess. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been in the business for a long time. The chronic tonsillitis is clinically caused mainly by acute tonsillitis that does not heal much. Patients with chronic tonsillitis may not have obvious pharyngeal pain, often have a dry throat, foreign body sensation in the throat, etc. Once the patient’s resistance is low, chronic tonsillitis can attack at any time to become acute tonsillitis. If the chronic tonsillitis is recurrent, such as a particularly long history and a particularly high frequency of attacks, you can also clinically consider having a tonsillectomy to avoid the possibility of recurrent attacks inducing arthritis, nephritis, myocarditis and other diseases in patients.
