I'm so scared I don't want surgery!
I have really bad strep throat and there's puss pockets all over my tonsils and stuff.. will I have to have my tonsils taken out? or is it only for when people get sick ALL the time? I'm so scared of surgery so give details on what they look for if they consider taking tonsils out. Thanks so much!

I don't know whether or not a doctor would recommend to remove your tonsils, but I wanted to let you know that if he does it isn't THAT bad. I had strep throat every other month for a year before they decided to take mine out. The worst part I recall was recieving the IV and feeling nausea after waking up from anesthesia. I ate some ice cream and soup for a couple of days, and after that felt much better. I haven't had strep throat since, and I'm glad I finally got it taken care of.
Good Luck!

Usually people who get sick all the time get their tonsils removed.. If your doctor didn`t recommend it then i wouldn`t worry about it.. ♥ Dez

They used to take tonsils out a lot. They really don't do that much anymore.
My son had tonsils that were swollen all the time. I mean the kid would sound like he was snoring just sitting there watching TV. If he ate a cracker or something sharp like that, they would actually bleed.
I had to request that they be taken out. They weren't going to do it.
That being said, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Unless you have a problem with them all the time, they won't take them out. :)

you can only get youre tonsils taken out if you have strep ALOT. like 6 times a year or something. i'd always have to go through this so i know. and if you go to the doctor theyll just give you some antibiotics for a week and it should clear up. hope i help<33
