Adenoids and Tonsils Removal
Mommie took some photos of me at the Day Surgery Center. PoPo came down and bought me Teddy Bears and a Get Well Soon balloon.
While waiting for my turn, I was given some colourings by the nurse to pass the time.
Finally, it's my turn.
At abt 5pm, I'm being pushed out.. Still drowsy..
Today's the 3rd day post operation, I'm doing well now. Appetite's returning also :)
Some Facts and Tips.....
What Are Tonsils & Adenoids?
Tonsils and adenoids are part of a "ring" of glandular/lymphoid tissue encircling the back of the throat. Tonsils are visible at the back of the mouth, one on each side. The adenoid is found high in the throat, right behind the nose and needs special instruments in order to see it. Figures 1 & 2 show the anatomical sites of tonsils and adenoids.
What Are Tonsils And Adenoids For?
They act as "policemen" and help to form antibodies to "germs" that invade the nose, mouth and throat. This function may be important in young children up to 3 years old but there is no evidence that it is important after that. Studies have shown that children that have tonsils/adenoids removed suffer no loss in their immunity to diseases.
When Should Surgery (Adenoidectomy/Tonsillectomy) Be Done?
Recurrent Tonsillitis
Frequent acute infections causing high fever and sore throat.
Snoring / Obstructive Sleep Apnoea
Enlarged adenoids / tonsils causing nose and throat obstruction to breathing while asleep. If untreated, it may lead to complications involving the heart and lungs.
Chronic Otitis Media with Effusion
Persistent fluid in the middle ear causing hearing impairment
Peritonsillar Abscess
Pus forming around the tonsillar bed
Tumors
Rare, but may occur in children e.g. lymphoma
