If you have your tonsils out are you more likely to get colds?

i am 14 and i always seem to get cold and i have an athletic life and i eat healthily, 3 times a day but i still get loads of colds, i have a big county athletics day tomorrow, can any1 help me???

Having your tonsils out is suppose to help you NOT to have so many colds. I had mine out when I was 5 because I had throat infections and ear aches all the time and I will say it helped me to get them out, but I don't think they take them out as easily these days, has to be really necessary in order for them to from what I have heard. Maybe your body is just lacking in vitamins that build your immune system and fight off colds. I would check with your family Dr. to see if a multivitamin or Extra Vitamin C would help you. Maybe check to see if they are colds and not just allergies. Hope you find some answers to help you : )

Nope.

They do help a little, but colds have little to do with tonsils. The thing with colds is that the virus mutates so rapidly that by the time your whole class has caught it, they've generated 3 new viruses out of it to spread around.

Your healthy diet is good, but it won't keep you from getting a cold. Only seclusion will do that.

se dar first of all taking out ur tonsil will not healp u in any way to relive ur cold. if u don't have chronic tonsillitis then there is no point in going for oparating ur tonsils.
moreover about ur cold u can eat a lot of freash citrious fruits like orange and lemons etc. or take vit c suppliment
