Patient's question:
Our child has been experiencing recurrent tonsillitis for the past few years. The doctor recommended that we have the tonsils removed, but the child's grandmother is against the surgery, and we are at a loss. Could you please tell me what situations can lead to tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
