Tonsillitis is an acute or chronic inflammation, usually of infectious origin, the palatine tonsils (located near the palace buccal) or lingual (tongue around).

Tonsillitis is extremely common in children before 10 years, and less common in adolescents and adults. The tonsils are lymphoid formations - consisting of lymphocytes (white blood cell range to participate in the immune system). And other lymphoid organs are: thymus (gland located beneath the sternum), bone marrow, lymph nodes.

All these bodies contribute to defending the body against pathogenic microbes, participating in the production of white blood cells produce antibodies. In addition, the tonsils form a protective barrier of the airway. But, in turn, the tonsils can become inflamed due to viral or bacterial infections, resulting in tonsillitis.

Tonsillectomy (surgical removal of tonsils) is the most common surgery in children, but now resorting to this procedure only as a last resort.

  1. As a sign of gratitude for how my husband was saved from Lymes, I decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
    My husband suffered from Lymes and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him. I searched for a cure and I saw testimony of so many people who were cured from Lymes , and so many others with similar body problems, and they left the contact of this doctor who had the herbal cure to Lymes. I never imagined Lymes had a cure not until I contacted him and he assured me my husband will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my husband used it and in one months he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life.Lymes has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua can cure Herpes,Hiv,Cancer,ALS,Copd,MS,Diabetes, and other disease talk to Dr Itua on how to get the medication.
