Dear Patient,

Have you had repeated episodes of sore throat/phlegm/swallowing problem/frequent stomach issues/breathing problem/ enlarged or infected tonsils? I'm afraid in the absence of any of these symptoms a tonsillectomy is NOT recommended. I can imagine how embarrassing bad breath can be. However, have you tried brushing AFTER every meal using extra care to wash your tongue with the back bristles on the brush, using mouthwash and warm gargles and floss regularly and mouthwash strips socially? If yes you may see a specialist for further help.

For further help, we recommend checking with one of the
best eye-specialists in Karachi and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/karachi/eye-specialist
