A member asked:
After many tests my doctor told me that the whistling that i'm hearing upon exhalation is due to my hypertrophic tonsils. is it possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Enlarged tonsils can affect the noise upon exhalation. An ENT doctor can confirm this if you have not seen an ENT yet.
