At Medikeri’s Super Speciality ENT Centre, we offer safe and effective tonsillectomy procedures to treat recurrent tonsillitis, enlarged tonsils, and airway obstruction. Our experienced ENT surgeons use modern techniques to ensure minimal discomfort and a smooth recovery for both children and adults.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Tonsillectomy is the surgical removal of the tonsils, commonly performed for chronic or recurrent throat infections, breathing difficulties, sleep apnea, or tonsillar abscesses. The decision for surgery is based on the frequency and severity of symptoms, as well as the impact on daily life.

ANESTHESIA & PREPARATION

The procedure is done under general anesthesia. Preoperative evaluation includes a thorough medical history, blood tests, and an airway examination. Patients are advised to fast before surgery and follow all pre-op guidelines provided by the surgical team.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Using specialized instruments or advanced technologies like coblation or laser, the tonsils are removed through the mouth with no external incisions. The surgical site is carefully managed to minimize bleeding and promote faster healing.

MINIMALLY INVASIVE APPROACHES

Modern coblation-assisted and laser tonsillectomy techniques offer less pain, reduced intraoperative bleeding, and quicker recovery times compared to traditional methods. These techniques are especially beneficial for pediatric patients.

CLOSURE & RECOVERY

No stitches are usually required. Patients are monitored postoperatively for a few hours before discharge. A sore throat, mild ear pain, or low-grade fever may be expected during the initial recovery phase.

POST-SURGICAL CARE

After surgery, patients are advised to rest, stay hydrated, and consume soft, cool foods. Pain relievers and antibiotics may be prescribed. Avoiding spicy foods, heavy activity, and crowded places helps ensure a smooth recovery. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor healing.
