Tonsils and adenoids can play an important role in your child’s immune system—but sometimes they cause more harm than good.
In this episode of Monday Health Minutes, Melanie Shafer sits down with Valley Health physician assistant Tiffany Aeling to discuss:
- What tonsils and adenoids actually do
- Signs they may need to be removed
- How frequent infections factor into surgery decisions
- Sleep apnea symptoms in children
- What recovery looks like for kids vs adults
- Long-term effects after removal
If your child snores, struggles with sleep, or gets frequent throat infections—this is a must-watch.
