2. Patients with recurrent tonsillitis or multiple complications of peritonsillar abscesses, as well as those with enlarged tonsils that hinder swallowing and breathing, and those who are often inflamed and spread to adjacent organs, leading to otitis media, lymphadenitis, etc., should be sent to the hospital for treatment in time.
