Yes, surgery can be an option for treating chronic tonsil pain. One surgical procedure that is commonly employed to address chronic tonsil pain is a tonsillectomy, which involves the removal of the tonsils.

A tonsillectomy may be recommended if you experience frequent or persistent tonsillitis, recurrent throat infections, or if your chronic tonsil pain is interfering with your daily activities and quality of life.

However, it is important to note that not all cases of chronic tonsil pain require surgery. Before pursuing surgery, it is advisable to consult with an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist who can evaluate your specific condition and determine the most appropriate treatment approach for you. They may recommend medications or other non-surgical interventions as a first-line treatment before considering surgery.
Normally, no. Consult Integrative Medicine and Naturopath.
