I've noticed that the upper back part of my throat is swollen. It seemed to have gotten a bit better over the last couple of days, but it's still noticeable. I'm curious about whether this is something normal or if it's a sign of a more serious issue. Could you share some remedies or advice on what I should do about it?

My 7-year-old son has been suffering from tonsil and adenoid issues for a year now. The doctor recommended a coblation tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, but I'm worried about long-term side effects. Is this procedure safe for kids his age? Should we go ahead with the surgery or explore other options?
Coblation is the safest method for adenotonsillectomy in the current practice.
