Короткий опис(реферат):
Resume. Children's health requires constant comprehensive protection. An organism that is not yet fully formed needs each of the components of the immune system. An important role in the defines system is assigned to the tonsils – lymph cells that have accumulated in the oral cavity and nasopharynx. Their function is to protect the body from various pathogenic microorganisms and produce lymphocytes.
Tonsils can cause some dangerous diseases, so in some cases; doctors prescribe the removal of the tonsils for a child. Such a cardinal measure should be resorted to with caution, because the body loses part of the immune system forever, so specialists in the field of otolaryngology remove the tonsils only in cases where it is impossible to avoid it.
If a child often has repeated infectious diseases of the throat, in particular, tonsillitis, doctors may advise removing the tonsils. However, scientists have different views on whether this surgical procedure is appropriate and whether it will not lead to a worsening of the situation. After all, tonsils are necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system; they are one of the first barriers against infections. So what to do – treat tonsillitis conservatively, or wait until the child "outgrows" them, or still remove the tonsils?
