A member asked:

I want to get a tonsillectomy for my chronic tonsillitis but am afraid because i get bad keloids on my skin after any cut.will this affect my surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No. : Tonsillectomy involves the removal of tonsils which are in the throat. The mucous membranes of the mouth/throat do not form keloid.
