Patient's question:
Nasal discharge, half a month ago, sleeping with snoring, previous treatment and effectiveness: Taking anti-inflammatory drugs, Huasupian tablets, nasal drops, Biyuantongqiaogeli. What kind of assistance is desired: Wants strict treatment, does not want surgery.Doctor's answer:
The tonsils are the first line of defense in the human mouth. If this defense line doesn't frequently cause problems, we should try to keep it, as it does have some utility. However, if it frequently causes issues, such as swelling when inflamed or chronic inflammation, it cannot be retained because there is a potential risk involved. Prolonged tonsil inflammation in children can lead to recurrent childhood nephritis, which is something both parents and doctors would rather avoid. Therefore, if it frequently inflames or becomes enlarged to the point of causing breathing difficulties, it is advisable to have it removed to prevent future complications.
