What is tonsillitis?

When tonsils get infected, it is known as tonsillitis. Tonsils are the soft masses of tissues that are located at the back of the throat. Tonsils act as filters and trap germs from entering the airways and preventing them from causing any infection. Tonsillitis is often caused by a viral infection, but bacterial infection may also cause tonsillitis. The treatment of tonsillitis depends upon the exact cause of the problem.

    Treatment of tonsillitis

    Diagnosis

    Tonsillitis can be diagnosed by a physical examination of the throat through an endoscopy test. The ENT specialist may also recommend a throat culture and send the sample to a lab in order to identify the cause of the infection.

    Mild cases of tonsillitis can be treated with antibiotics and do not require surgery. But severe cases of tonsillitis may require tonsillitis or antibiotics. Tonsillitis is the surgical procedure of removing infected tonsils. Undergoing a tonsillectomy not just reduces recurrent episodes of tonsillitis but also reduces the risk of developing strep throat.

    Procedure

    The diagnosis of tonsillitis is based on a physical examination of the throat through an endoscopy test. The ENT doctor may take a throat culture and send it to the laboratory to identify the cause of the infection. Treatment is not necessary in the case of mild or acute tonsillitis, especially when it is due to cold. Simple home remedies will work. However, if the condition is severe, Tonsillectomy is prescribed. It is a surgical procedure for treating chronic tonsillitis where the surgeon removes the tonsils from the upper throat.

    2. Intracapsular tonsillectomy – In this procedure, the surgeon removes the affected tonsils tissue, but also leaves a small layer to protect the underlying muscles.
