Tonsillitis symptoms usually makes people difficult to swallow and required him to avoid cold drinks like ice cream. But why do people with thyroid problems are not allowed to eat ice cream?

In essence all throat infections should not be eating ice cream. Because the ice cream that's cold and has a temperature below body temperature, so that it can lead to tonsillitis that has got worse.

Someone should be able to recognize themselves, whether he has a body that is sensitive or not. For example, if he felt pain while swallowing or sore after eating ice cream, ice cream then this should be avoided. In essence, any food or drinks that can stimulate the irritation should be avoided, such as food or drink that is too hot, too cold, too sour or spicy. Because it will cause irritation that can make a person sick when swallowing or aggravate the inflammation of tonsils.

Tonsils are a part of the lymph tissue located on both sides of the back of the throat. This will have an enlarged tonsils or inflammation in the event of infection by either bacteria or viruses. But usually the tonsils will be back to normal after the infection is over.

Tonsillitis can be caused by a viral infection (Coxsackie’s virus, adenovirus or Epstein-Barr virus), or it could be by the bacteria that most of Group a Streptococcus.

If tonsillitis is caused by bacteria, usually a doctor will prescribe antibiotics to eliminate the infection. But if it is caused by a virus, then attempted to drink plenty of water, eating soft foods and given medication to reduce symptoms.

If the tonsils are experiencing chronic or can no longer be treated with medication, it must be performed surgery to remove the tonsils are inflamed.

After surgery the patient will usually be given ice cream, because ice cream has a cool temperature so that it can help close the capillaries (tiny blood vessels).

This tonsillectomy cause open wounds and not everything is stitched, because only vessel size are sewn so that by eating ice cream can help close the wound so as not to bleed easily. And the healing process was different about 5 days to a week.

Operations are often experienced in childhood is one of them is a tonsil removal operation, medical language is a Tonsillectomy, which carried out surgical techniques, meaning that operations are conducted by a doctor using a scalpel.

Well now there is good news for children and parents, because now there tonsil removal method without a scalpel.

This method is known as thermal welding tonsillectomy method, this technology has long existed in fact, developed in the United States since 1980.

Thermal welding tonsillectomy method can be equated with a special tool for tonsillectomy, the working principle of this tool is to use heat. Thermal welding tool will generate a finite heat at exactly the desired place and as a result of this heat will crumple tissue proteins.

The result can be used to remove tonsils that had clotted the cut and prevent bleeding at the same time, so of course can replace the scalpel used for tonsil surgery.

Thermal welding tonsillectomy advantages
This technology was developed with the aim to reduce pain after tonsil surgery is conventional, as well as to shorten the time of removal of tonsils, and once to minimize bleeding.

At the Operation of Thermal welding is used to remove Tonsils of the place will stick with this equipment TW bleeding and tissue trauma become very minimal.

Thermal welding tonsillectomy also was able to cut very accurately, so that only the tonsils are cut and the operation time is very short, because the doctors who have trained with these tools can complete TW Tonsil surgery in just 10 minutes.

Thermal welding tonsillectomy in children, a very short period of tonsillitis treatment, when all without constraints, children can go home after surgery. Recovery period is also shorter, and so far very rare post-operative bleeding was reported.

Operating costs tonsils with TW method compared with conventional techniques is not too much different, so that the thermal welding tonsillectomy can be an option for parents Child.

Based on research conducted in Michigan and reported by U.S. News & World Report says that children who have large tonsils and adenoids are swollen likely to experience disordered breathing habits during sleep in children. This breathing disorder (tonsillitis symptoms) that can cause children to wet the bed at night.

While the cause of why children who experience respiratory problems during sleep tend to like dry until paper is loaded the cause is unknown. Only, the study noted that children who has breathing habits during sleep the bed because it has the tonsils will stop bedwetting if their tonsils taken.

Therefore, it is suggested to the parents who have children who suffer from tonsillitis in children to check with the doctor-related breathing disorders during sleep and bedwetting disorders. It's good if parents check the condition in ENT doctor to see if your child's bedwetting due to disordered breathing during sleep. The disorder can be overcome by removing the tonsils or called tonsillectomy in children, said Yegappan Lakshmanan, head of research and head of pediatric urology at Children's Hospital of Michigan.

Just not all the problems bedwetting in children caused by disordered breathing during sleep. Children are often divided into three groups of bedwetting, bladder problems, kidney problems and sleep disorders. In studies conducted in Michigan, is only performed on children who experience sleep disturbances. If your child continues to wet the bed, do not hesitate to consult a pediatrician to find out the cause.

Tonsillitis can cause a child snoring during sleep

Children who have had chronic tonsillitis who will experience sleep disorders such as snoring and sleep anxiety. If this is allowed, it will greatly interfere with your child development.

If your child is snoring, it is highly likely to have Occurred OSAS (Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome), namely the Cessation of breathing during sleep. If this Happens to your child, then it Should Tonsillectomy or tonsils removal and diet for children who are overweight. If no one has it all, first detection of snoring. When rare, quite monitored only, if you are including frequent, then tilted his sleeping position. If still snoring, try sleeping on his stomach. If you want to be tried without surgery can be a nasal spray for 4-8 weeks first. When snoring is reduced or lost, then the operation can be postponed. Pals but he was still snoring, and then the operation can be done.

Tonsillectomy before age 20th years old can be at risk of premature heart disease

noreply@blogger.com (widia) — Sat, 3 Sep 2011 21:53:00 -0700

Some new study conducted by a group of researchers in the United States and Scandinavia showed that tonsillectomy before the age of 20 years can make a person more at risk of premature cardiovascular disorders.

In this study, researchers monitored every Swedish citizen who has made removal of the tonsils. Total tonsillectomy was included for this study estimated about 80,000 procedures.

The results of this study known to the person tonsillectomy before the age of 20 years had a risk of 44 percent more likely to have heart attacks than those who did not perform the operation. Whereas in the appendix removed before age 20 the risk is increased by 33 percent.

This indicates that both the organ has a function for the body. When the organ is removed it can reduce the production of immunoglobulin antibodies in the body that function to find and destroy harmful bacteria and viruses.

The researchers incorporated in this study revealed that harmful bacteria and viruses are believed to play a role in disturbing the heart health.

Meanwhile, those who performed the surgery after the age of 20 years there have been no increased cardiac risk. This suggests that these organs play a major role in the immune system during childhood and adolescence.

Although it is expected not to panic in advance, because the number of heart attacks early in the study is still low. Than 54,000 surgical tonsil removals of the appendix and 27,000 tonsillectomy only 633 related heart attack.

For that you should consult in advance if you have inflammation of the tonsils or appendix, if can be harmful to the body or not. And should keep and maintain the heart in order to stay healthy at any age.

Tonsils are a part of the lymph tissue located on both sides of the back of the throat. This will have an enlarged tonsils or inflammation in case of infection by either bacteria or viruses. But usually the tonsils will be back to normal after the infection is over.

Tonsillitis symptoms can be caused by viral infection (coxsackie virus, adenovirus or Epstein-Barr virus), or it could be by the bacteria that most of Group a Streptococcus.

But by looking at the impact of the loss of the tonsils in the risk of heart indicates that these two organs also have an important function for the body.

Side effects of tonsillectomy in children

noreply@blogger.com (widia) — Fri, 2 Sep 2011 19:19:00 -0700

If you intend to bring your children to the hospital for a tonsillectomy, so be prepared to face the tonsillectomy side effects. Some children experience weight gain after surgical removal of tonsils or often called tonsil procedure.

Surgical removal of tonsils is generally done to cope with chronic tonsillitis. Inflammation in this part usually makes the child has symptoms such as trouble swallowing (dysphagia) and pain on swallowing (odynophagia).

These symptoms are of course affect the diet, so to some extent will affect children growth, especially height and weight. If allowed, the children will be more skinny and long to be malnourished.

After the tonsils or inflamed tonsils were removed through surgery called Tonsillectomy, children no longer have difficulty or pain when swallowing food. Therefore, going back to normal eating patterns and may lead to obesity in children.

Obesity experienced by the children after tonsillectomy procedure is quite significant. A study which examines three studies of Tonsillectomy prove that the increase in body weight or body mass index (BMI) after surgery reaching 46-100 percent.

In the first study carried out 127 children with tonsillitis, removal of tonsils or tonsils make child BMI increased between 5.5 to 8.2 percent. In America, this figure is alarming considering the fact 33 percent of children in this country are overweight (overweight) and 17 percent were obese.

Although not revealed a direct relationship, weight gain after tonsillectomy is feared to trigger a dramatic increase in children who suffer from obesity related.

The next study examined 419 children, with weight gain after tonsillectomy procedure is quite variable between 46-100 percent. Subsequent research revealed 249 children with tonsil removal of body weight increased 50-75 percent.

Although less tonsillectomy procedure performed today than 40 years ago, but this is still one of the major surgical operation most commonly performed in children in the U.S.. Physicians and parents should consider this study's findings before deciding whether their child should undergo tonsillectomy procedure, said Jeyakumar, who is also assistant professor of pediatrics.

The analysis, published in the journal Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery was observed nine studies specifically on the tonsils or tonsillectomy with adenoidectomy (removal of the thyroid gland), published between 1970 and 2009. Recorded 795 children involved in the study were aged 18 years or younger and has a weight ranging from normal to obese is not healthy. The research was divided into three sections based on the weight, and the participants were followed for an average of one year.

The first group, with 127 patients, measured body mass index (BMI). On average, the BMI of children in that group increased by about 7 percent after surgery and 3.6 percent more weight than the control group.

The second group, with 419 children, using height and weight charts in the U.S.. Weight gain was recorded in 46 percent to 100 percent of this group, the researchers said.

Various methods were used to assess weight gain in the third group, involving 249 patients. From 50 percent to 75 percent of the children gain weight more than expected based on the growth and development, according to the analysis.

A small number of studies included in this study reflect the inconsistencies in recording medical information, which makes comparisons difficult.

Tonsillectomy procedures performed mostly in children who at times has had an infection, or experience respiratory problems that affect sleep. This condition is sometimes associated with frequent upper respiratory tract infection.

Jeyakumar cautioned that the study did not indicate why the children gain weight or even to prove the reason they're fat because it had undergone tonsillectomy.

The theory of weight gain after tonsillectomy showed that children who are hyperactive before surgery became calmer and more focused after, so they use fewer calories. Children with sleep disorders may burn more calories because they are struggling to breathe. These two conditions often occur in children with chronic tonsillitis.

Another theory states that parents may tend to feed more children to immediately recover from surgery.

Tonsils are organs that function to filter bacteria and other foreign agents from the body. If the tonsils can work optimally, the body will be protected from bacterial or viral infection.

The University of Texas Medical Branch said that technically the tonsils are lymph nodes that are formed during the third month of pregnancy. It lies between the mouth and throat, the tonsils are gradually be enlarged up to a certain age.

If the tonsils are infected with either bacteria or a virus then it will swell known as tonsillitis sympstoms. These infections can come from germs are inhaled while breathing. If the inflammation that occurs in chronic tonsillitis, the doctor will usually perform surgical tonsillitis removal.

There are several precautions that can be done to keep the tonsils in order to stay healthy and protected from viral or bacterial infection:

Tonsillitis treatment method in children

noreply@blogger.com (widia) — Sun, 21 Aug 2011 21:46:00 -0700

Treatment method of children with tonsillitis is anti-infection, intravenous antibiotics, medication, intravenous injection, has improved, indicating that effective medicine treatment, symptomatic, should continue treatment until tonsillitis symptoms disappear.

Tonsillitis in children for the children most likely to get diseases. The main clinical tonsillitis symptoms are: sudden onset, fever, chills, headache, sore throat, loss of appetite and other symptoms. Examination shows swelling of the tonsils congestion, purulent oozing points, such as convergence, like a pseudo membrane. Blood examination shows increased white blood cells, if the number of acute recurrent tonsillitis can become chronic.

The disease occurs in the resistance drops, cold, fatigue after the streptococci or staphylococci. How the clinical treatments of tonsillitis in children? Treatment principles: first, to understand the problem is that any disease should be treated separately, can not be generalized, according to the specific situation of the specific treatment.

Tonsillitis treatment:

1, the specific inflammation depends on what the situation is not very serious, if only for a sore throat, a few times, coughing, eating two days will be good medicine.

2, if there is frequent purulent, ENT doctor needs to look at the degree of tonsils enlargement, if the tonsils large, and often fester, causing fever, may require removal of tonsils. Tonsils as sentinels of the respiratory tract, as in the respiratory tract of the door guard against invasion of foreign pathogens. However, if the amygdale itself is hidden inside a lot of pathogens in the body slightly less resistance when the inside out activities on the possession of the pathogen, not only did not play a defensive role, but also become hidden killers, they should get rid of as soon as possible.

3, tonsil itself is part of the upper respiratory tract, upper respiratory tract infection is so tonsillitis, and other like pharyngitis, rhinitis, also belong to the upper respiratory tract infection. Does not mean that one has tonsillitis on fever, cough or throat and sometimes that is uncomfortable. As I mentioned above, if the sentinel would not achieve the role of the amygdale, but also get into trouble should be removed.

4, in children with respiratory tract infections pathogens, like bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, Chlamydia, many species, but among the general respiratory infections, viral infections accounted for a large proportion of it should be said in the upper respiratory tract infection in patients who , 80% -90% of patients should be viral respiratory tract infection, viral infection, there is no specific treatment, we used Chinese medicine is that some detoxification, there is rest, drink plenty of water.

5, but many parents do not understand this point on, especially in children with high fever, I felt very ill children, and must infusion bottle to fight better. Bottle of antibiotics we usually lose, that is, anti-inflammatory drugs, this is for bacterial infection, the virus infection is of no use, even if the bottle is not necessarily playing effective, this should draw attention to the problem, because not a bacterial infection, with a drug-resistant bacteria is of no use, the other drugs may have a negative effect.

6, the other as mycoplasma, Chlamydia infection, need to macrolide antibiotics, such as: erythromycin, azithromycin. To find out what is causing pathogens, then it should go to the hospital to do some laboratory tests to help diagnose. For example: routine, see if there is no significant increase in white blood cells, white blood cells, or if there is significantly increased neutrophils may be bacterial infection, in addition to two other, larger hospitals can check out C-reactive protein, which are is the difference between bacterial infections and viral infections of some checks.
