    The tonsils are the lymphoid tissues of the pharynx, and the development of the systemic immune system in childhood is not perfect, and the lymphoid tissues of the pharynx are prone to frequent responses when dealing with pathogens.

    In the long run, the size of the tonsils depends on the state of the body's immune system, and there is no clear drug that can accurately control their size. If the tonsils are large enough to block the airway, causing shortness of breath or even apnea during sleep (as shown by sleep apnea), surgical removal may be considered, but fortunately, this is rare.

    For acute infection, the mild case can be cured by itself, and the severe case should be identified as the pathogen and targeted medication, and there is no one drug to treat 10,000 people.

    The tonsils are the immune organs of the human body, equivalent to two huge lymph nodes, and frequent contact with external antigens will produce physiological immune responses, which will produce physiological immune responses, and the reason why the tonsils are enlarged is because they are infected by viruses or bacteria.

    The main cause of enlarged tonsils in babies is caused by repeated respiratory infections, recurrent rhinitis and recurrent otitis media, and if the baby is allergic, it can also lead to enlarged tonsils.

    When the child's immunity is low, it is easy to be infected by bacteria or viruses in the air, and pathological hypertrophy caused by chronic inflammation or acute inflammation of the tonsils.

    Reverse respiratory infections and rhinitis can also cause the child's tonsils to be enlarged by inflammation.

    Long-term enlargement of the tonsils causes many diseases, often causing symptoms in the throat, such as dry throat, itchy throat, sore throat, foreign body sensation in the throat and painful swallowing, and even snoring, peritonsillitis, bad breath, and in severe cases, abscess around the tonsils. In addition, it is also prone to diseases of related tissues around the tonsils, such as chronic otitis media, chronic laryngitis, chronic sinusitis, chronic bronchitis and chronic cor pulmonale.

    The immunity of 5-year-old children is also relatively poor, so children are particularly susceptible to bacterial infection, and then the tonsils will become inflamed, which will lead to enlarged tonsils. Therefore, if the child's tonsils are swollen, it means that there are germs in the child's body, and parents should take the child to the hospital to see a doctor.

    I also checked on the Internet and found that many children will have swollen tonsils, because children's immunity is relatively low, and they are particularly susceptible to bacterial infection. At this time, the child is very uncomfortable, because the tonsils are red and swollen, and it will be very painful, so that the child can not even drink water, let alone eat. Therefore, parents must take their children to the hospital to see a doctor in time, so that the children's tonsils will no longer be swollen and uncomfortable, and the children will be healthier.

    And parents can also discuss with the doctor whether they need to remove the child's tonsils, if the child's tonsils are always inflamed, it will also delay the child's life, so it is also a good choice to remove it.

    Parents must be careful when taking care of children, if the weather gets cold, they should immediately dress the children, do not let the children catch a cold, the children after the cold are particularly prone to colds, after the cold will lead to a lot of bacteria in the body, it is possible to make the tonsils inflamed. Therefore, children are very fragile, their bodies are also relatively easy to get sick, if parents are always careless to take care of children, it will make children weak and sick, and they will also leave the root of the disease when they grow up, which will affect the development of children.
