Infectious diseases are disorders caused by organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites.

They can be transmitted through direct contact with an infected person, animal, insect bites, or contaminated food and water.

Symptoms vary but often include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, cough, and digestive issues.

Diagnosis involves physical examinations, medical history review, and diagnostic tests such as blood tests, cultures, and imaging.

Treatments may include antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, antiparasitics, and supportive care depending on the type of infection.

Tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the tonsils, which can help alleviate chronic tonsillitis, obstructive sleep apnea, and other tonsil-related issues.

The surgery itself is not painful due to anesthesia. Post-surgery, some discomfort at the incision site is normal but manageable.
