if they keep getting infected, enlarged, or if they get strep alot.

Even if tonsils of some very unlucky people are prone to cause infection, become purulent and get so inflamed that they could choke the person to death, it's becomming quite rare nowadays to see doctors remove them due to an increased cancer risk if that happens.
