waiting for answer. Would be great if you can take a sec and
answer them
Sick Child with Tonsillitis?I have a sick 2 y/o who is sick with one thing or another. She had a ton of ear issues, resolved with tubes and lately high temps (tonsillitis twice in one month). Is this a common thing for little ones. My 10 y/o is never sick and he wasn't too sick as a toddler either

I would not say that it is common yet the ear issue is common as quite a few children need tube treatments for ear conditions. The frequency of her tonsillitis could be an nose or throat condition where her body is having trouble fighting off pathogens. Allergies could also be a concern with the frequency of her tonsillitis. Remember, the tonsils are part of your lymph system which help fight infections. Go see a pediatrician if this problem does not get resolved.

my daughters just got their tonsils and their adenoid taken out.my oldest is 9 and middle one is 6.when they were younger they got sick a lot.my oldest when she was 2 she had her adenoid taken out but it grew back. she snored really loud so i took her to the doctor and they suggested the surgery.they told me if they get throat or ear infections 4 times in a year that it's best to do the surgery.since then thy haven't gotten sick.i would talk to my doctor and see what they suggest.Good luck

Dude, Michale gave some great advice. I was hopeing it wasn't only my girlfriend and I (and a few books) that knew about how it can be a bad thing to remove tonsils.
Please look at all the options you can. Both Eastern and Western styles of treatments.
