Ear, Nose and Throat. Having your tonsils removed is a surgical procedure called a tonsillectomy. Reasons you may need to have your tonsils removed include: frequent infections (episodes of tonsillitis, usually 7 or more in 1 year), difficulty breathing or swallowing, sleep apnea, or any growths on the tonsils.
Frequent sore throats or tonsils that are so large they interfere with swallowing or breathing are typical reasons why a health care provider might recommend removing the tonsils. While tonsil removal surgery -- a tonsillectomy -- typically lasts only 30 to 45 minutes, the recovery period is usually about 2 weeks. During this time, it's common to experience a variety of symptoms. Some symptoms, like throat pain, are to be expected. But it's good to know about the less common side effects as well.
