Tonsillitis: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment and Prevention

What is Tonsil?

Tonsils are small tissues found at the back of the throat. They act as filters for antibodies, germs, pathogens and infectious material. Sometimes the tonsils trap the germs beyond the limit, resulting in an infection inside the throat. The tonsils are part of the human anatomy and contribute to immunity. Plus, as people get older, they don’t need tonsils for immunity. Infection of the tonsils is called tonsillitis and is quite common in children under 9 years old. The main reason for infection of tonsils is that these tissues contain infectious pathogens and fight them. In the event that they are overloaded with bad pathogens, they get fat. Also, without proper care and treatment, they tend to grow further, leading to the growth of tonsils and the formation of tonsil stones. Tonsillitis can cause sore throat, strep throat, mild fever, and swollen tonsils. Another problem with tonsillitis is that it is recurrent. If proper treatment is not taken in time, it can lead to serious complications.

Fast facts on tonsils

Although tonsils are common problems and usually resolve on their own, people do not see a doctor when they have mild symptoms. Common issues that people ignore are a mild fever, muscle weakness, and a stiff neck or sore throat that doesn’t go away after 2 days. But, the condition should not be ignored. A thorough diagnosis will not hurt you. If you are suffering from a tonsil infection, make an appointment with the ENT doctors at Pristyn Care. There are cases when the infection of the tonsils can cause the throat to swell so much that it causes difficulty in breathing. In some cases, this leads to the formation of tonsil stones.

What Are the Causes of Tonsil Stones?

Tonsil tissue is the first line of defense against bacterial or infectious pathogens that can enter the throat. The tonsils are part of the immune system, producing white blood cells and fighting infections, fighting bacteria and viruses. Unfortunately, the tonsils can also get infections. The condition can be caused by a virus or by a bacterial infection.

Viral tonsillitis: This is the most common reason for tonsillitis because the common cold is usually the source of tonsillitis, but other viruses can cause it as well.

Bacterial tonsillitis: Typically 20 to 25% of tonsillitis cases are due to bacteria and are more common in children aged 5 to 15 years.
