You typically cannot have your tonsils removed while having a cold because the presence of an active infection increases the risk of complications during surgery. A cold can cause inflammation and swelling in the throat, which may make the procedure more difficult and hinder recovery. Surgeons prefer to wait until you are fully healed to ensure a safer and smoother operation.
