Best Answer

Body systems affected would include the immune system, the lymphatic system (of which tonsils are a part) and could also affect metabolism and regulatory functions. Because the tonsils act like a filter for virus and bacteria the overall health of the individual could come into question.

Will you have have to have surgery if you have tonsillitis?

Tonsillitis is an inflammation and infection of the tonsils. The tonsils become inflamed and swollen. They can begin to affect swallowing if they become very swollen. Plus, children often experience pain. However, Tonsillitis does NOT automatically mean surgery. It depends. Surgery is usually done if antibiotics don't help, if the child gets repeated Tonsillitis, or the tonsils remain chronically swollen. The surgery is fairly quick with very few complications.
