@marie-0 Most of the time, tonsillectomy is performed in children 3 years and older. However, for children with significantly enlarged tonsils and breathing problems at night due to the large tonsils, tonsillectomy may be performed at the age of 2. (Since this is considered a slightly higher risk procedure in 2-year-olds, overnight observation at a hospital is usually recommended).
