Tonsi


Description

Tonsillitis is an inflammation of the tonsils, the fleshy clusters of tissue on both sides of the back of the throat that fight off germs that enter the body through the mouth. The tonsils become enlarged and red, and can be coated with a yellow, gray, or white substance.


How Chiropractic Care Relates to Tonsillitis

Birth and the early years of life are often traumatic experiences that can result in spinal subluxations (misaligned spinal bones that irritate spinal nerves) that have an adverse impact on your child’s health. Because the nervous system controls and coordinates all the different functions of your body, any disruption in nerve communication to your organs and body tissues will result in abnormal function. Chiropractors help restore normal nerve function and communication, thereby allowing your body to work normally and naturally. Numerous studies have confirmed that children under chiropractic care have fewer incidences of Tonsillitis as well as Otis Media (ear infections).
