Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils
Pace Hospitals
Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils with bacteria and viruses. It causes a sore throat and painful swallowing. It is also associated with fever and can occasionally be associated with a change in voice, earache and difficulty in breathing. As a complication, Pus may sometimes collect around the tonsil (known as Quinsy), which may require drainage or surgery. Tonsillitis usually requires antibiotics and painkillers for treatment. Surgery for tonsils may be necessary in severe and chronic cases. It is known as Tonsillectomy.
