Tonsillectomy

Expert Tonsillectomy Surgery for Tonsillitis & Throat Issues

Tonsillectomy is a precise surgical procedure involving the removal of the tonsils—two small lymphoid glands located at the back of the throat. This surgery is primarily recommended for patients suffering from recurrent tonsillitis, chronic throat infections, obstructive sleep apnea caused by enlarged tonsils, or difficulty swallowing due to tonsillar hypertrophy. The goal of the tonsillectomy surgery is to significantly reduce throat infections, improve breathing, and enhance overall throat health and quality of life.

Performed by the experienced ENT surgeon Dr. Ankit Singh, tonsillectomy is usually done under general anesthesia as a day-care or short hospital-stay procedure. The surgery involves the careful removal of the tonsils with minimal discomfort, preserving surrounding tissues and ensuring optimal healing. This tonsil removal procedure has a high success rate in eliminating persistent throat problems and sleep disturbances related to enlarged tonsils.

Recovery from tonsillectomy surgery typically takes 7 to 14 days. Patients may experience a sore throat, mild pain, and difficulty swallowing initially, which can be managed with pain relief medication and a soft-food diet. Post-operative care and follow-up with the ENT specialist are crucial to ensure a smooth recovery and to prevent any complications.

If you or your child suffers from frequent throat infections, breathing difficulties during sleep, or chronic tonsillitis, a consultation with Dr. Ankit Singh, a trusted ENT surgeon in Thane, can help determine if tonsillectomy is the right treatment option. Early surgical intervention can lead to long-term relief from symptoms, better sleep quality, and improved overall health.
