Tonsillectomy
Tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove the tonsils, which are lymphoid tissues located at the back of the throat. The surgery is recommended when tonsils become repeatedly infected or enlarged, causing breathing, swallowing, or sleep-related problems.
Modern surgical techniques ensure safe surgery, minimal discomfort, and faster recovery.
