Question: Tonsillectomy: Is there any way that a ENT doctor would reject a Tonsillectomy!?
I went to my Family Doctor today because I wanted to get a Tonsillectomy (tonsils removed), and he reffered me to an ENT!. I'm gonna make my appointment soon, but I'm worried that he might turn me down on the surgery!. I'm really desperate to get the surgery because I get a lot of Tonsiliths (Tonsil stones), and I want to know if that alone is a good enough reason for the ENT to perform this surgery on me!. I'm 18 BTW, so the healing process shouldn't be that bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Cutting them out is no longer considered the first option!. If your problems are seasonal, then the ENT may prefer to treat with medication and observe the results!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
