ASK A DOCTOR: WHY DOES MY TONSILLITIS KEEP COMING BACK?
Expert opinion from Mohan P. Abraham

Tonsilitis may keep on coming back for various reasons. For instance, you could be having an infection in the body caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. You could also be having a weak immunity that is not able to shield you from bacterial infections. Also, it can be due to the fact that you have been exposed to radiation before.

Some kids get tonsillitis. Or infected tonsils, again and again. A new study found that strep, a germ that causes tonsillitis, can trick the body's immune system. Because of the trick, the body's immune cells kill each other, rather than the germ.

Tonsillitis keep coming back due to weakend immune system, antibiotic resistant bacterial strain or a non-symptomatic carrier of strep bacteria in the family.
