Tonsils:
The tonsils are a pair of soft tissue
masses located at the rear of the throat. Each tonsil is composed of tissue
similar to lymph nodes, covered by pink mucosa. Running through the mucosa of
each tonsil are pits, called crypts.
The tonsils are part of the lymphatic
system, which helps to fight infections. However, removal of the tonsils does
not seem to increase susceptibility to infection. Tonsils vary widely in size
and swell in response to infection.
Types of Tonsils:
Ø
Acute tonsillitis: A bacteria or virus infects the
tonsils, causing swelling and a sore throat. The tonsil may develop a gray or
white coating.
Ø
Chronic tonsillitis: Persistent infection of the tonsils,
sometimes as a result of repeated episodes of acute tonsillitis.
Ø
Peritonsillar abscess: An infection creates a pocket of pus
next to the tonsil, pushing it toward the opposite side. Peritonsillar
abscesses must be drained urgently.
Ø
Acute mononucleosis: Usually caused by the Epstein-Barr
virus, “mono” causes severe swelling in the tonsils, fever, sore throat, rash,
and fatigue.
Ø
Strep throat: Streptococcus, a bacterium, infects
the tonsils and throat. Fever and neck pain often accompany the sore throat.
Ø
Enlarged tonsils: Large tonsils reduce the size of the
airway, making snoring or SLEEP APNEA more likely.
Ø
Tonsilloliths: Tonsil stones, or tonsilloliths, are
formed when this trapped debris hardens, or calcifies.
