Are tonsils useless?
Tonsils are not entirely useless; they play a role in the immune system, particularly in young children, by helping to trap pathogens and produce antibodies. However, their importance diminishes with age as other parts of the immune system take on a more significant role. In some cases, such as recurrent infections or obstructive sleep apnea, tonsils may need to be removed without significantly impacting overall health. Overall, while they have a function, they are not essential for a healthy immune response in adults.
How soon can you get a tonsillectomy?
There is no preferred age. Tonsils are removed only if a person gets tonsillitis, and then only if it is a serious case. Most tonsillitis is caused by a virus which can be treated with antibiotics. If someone gets repeated infections then surgery may be recommended by your doctor.

Is tonsillectomy and sleep apnea connected?
Yes, a tonsillectomy is performed in sleep apnea when the tonsils are felt to be so large as to occlude breathing. This is usually done in young patients, especially children 3 to 10 years of age or so. Occasionally, tonsils are removed in older patients for sleep apnea, but usually in combination with other surgeries, if surgery is recommended at all. Most adults are treated with a CPAP machine first, and surgery is only done if that does not work or is not tolerated.
