After tonsillectomy, there is basically no long-term harm to the human body, except for the short-term effects of the surgery itself, such as post-operative pain and bleeding.
Tonsils are the body’s immune organs, after the age of 9~10 years the immune effect of tonsils gradually decline, so for adults even if the tonsils are removed, the body’s immune effect will not be greatly affected, and for children there are thymus and other immune tissues can be replaced.
When the tonsils are repeatedly inflamed, its immune effect is much smaller than the pain caused by its suppurative inflammation, at this time the tonsils as a lesion, should be considered for removal. At the same time, the tonsils should also be considered for removal if the inflammation causes enlargement that interferes with sleep and breathing, or even brings about other complications.
Whether or not to remove the tonsils needs to be decided by the doctor according to the specific situation of each person, and it is recommended to go to a regular hospital.
