Answers:
When I was your age, you had to get tonsilitis so many times a year before they'd consider taking them out!. It also depends on your insurance!. Have your parents take you to your doctor and he'll most likely have you start keeping track of how often you get it, how severe, etc!.

Make sure your doctor just doesn't ignore it, the younger you are the more success you'll have at treating your tonsil problem!. I have the same problems as you, even now at 31, and my doctor won't remove my tonsils because of my age!. My insurance company simply responds with answers like "you've lived with them this long, suck it up"!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i still have my tonsils too!. if you keep having tonsillitis i bet your doctor will opt to take them out!.

there is as new procedure for taking out tonsils now that is much better than the way it used to be!. the doctors use a laser and cut out your tonsils so the pain is reduced and the recuperation time is much easier on you!.

my daughter had her tonsils out using the laser method and she was fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it's no big deal!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.swelling every few weeeks is bad!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

had it done when I was 25, suffered for years like you are now!. Had it done on a Thursday, was back 100% by Monday!.

it was nothing!.!.!.!.!.!.!.let them do itWww@Answer-Health@Com

its probably time to get them taken out!.!.!.they're helpful, but in your case, it seems as if the cons far outweigh the pros (i didnt know thoes were called "tonsil stones")Www@Answer-Health@Com
