Understanding the condition

What is tonsillitis?

Your tonsils are two small pads of tissue on either side of the back of the throat that help fight germs. Sometimes they become the problem themselves — red, swollen and painful from an infection. That is tonsillitis, and it is common in both children and adults.

Most attacks are caused by viruses and settle with rest, fluids and simple care; some are bacterial and need specific medicine. Repeated attacks, or tonsils and adenoids so large that they block breathing during sleep, need a closer look.

Dr. Sai Prateek reviews how often infections happen and how they affect daily life and sleep. If tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy would genuinely help, he explains the benefits and recovery clearly so you can decide with confidence.

A special focus on snoring, sleep apnea and nasal breathing, coordinated with OGHA's sleep and dental teams.

FAQs

Tonsillitis FAQs

Why does tonsillitis happen?

It is usually a viral infection, though bacteria can also be responsible. When attacks keep returning, a specialist review helps find the best long-term approach.

How do you decide if the tonsils should be removed?

Surgery is considered when infections are frequent or severe, or when large tonsils and adenoids block breathing at night. Dr. Sai Prateek weighs these factors with you before advising it.

My child snores — could it be the tonsils?

Quite possibly. Large tonsils and adenoids are among the most common causes of snoring and restless sleep in children.

Can tonsillitis spread to others?

The germs behind it can spread through coughs, sneezes and close contact. Washing hands and not sharing cups helps.
