It is not possible to generalize the symptoms of encapsulated tonsils, some patients may not have any symptoms; some patients may have chronic tonsillitis and experience recurrent sore throat, fever and other symptoms.
Embedded tonsils are only an objective description of the shape of the tonsils, which may not protrude into the oral cavity but grow deeper into the tonsil fossa, and cannot be assessed by the naked eye.
If the tonsils are not enlarged or inflamed, some patients may not have any symptoms.
If there may be a combination of chronic tonsillitis there will be recurrent sore throat, fever and other symptoms. Some patients are even found to have buried tonsils only during tonsillectomy, although the surface is not large, the gland is actually larger and protrudes into the tonsil fossa.
Therefore, if you consider having buried tonsils and have related symptoms, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for comprehensive evaluation and treatment according to the patient’s specific situation.
