Patient's question:
Chronic low-grade fever, headache, dry stoolsDoctor's answer:
Currently, surgical removal of the tonsils remains the primary treatment method. However, it is essential to reasonably determine the indications to avoid arbitrary removal of the tonsils, which may lead to a weakened immune function in the respiratory tract and impaired immune surveillance. Moreover, surgery is not absolutely safe and may sometimes result in postoperative complications such as dry throat, pain, and discomfort. Surgical intervention should only be considered when the inflammation has already developed into irreversible lesions.
