A member asked:
I want to remove my tonsils,is it possible for me if i'm 25 year's old?

SEE DR: You probably will benefit from antibiotic therapy. Because of antibiotics tonsil surgery has become uncommon. Avoid this procedure unless medicines fail badly. It can be dangerous and unpleasant. With antibiotic + time this issue usually resolves.
