Tonsillitis Conditions and Diseases Health

Tonsils sit at the back of your throat, behind the tongue, and catch bacteria and viruses before they get into the body. Tonsillitis is when the tonsils become infected by the bacteria or a virus. Kids who get tonsillitis a lot, or who don't get better after antibiotics, might need surgery to remove the tonsils.
