Summary

This study compares two common surgical tools (monopolar and bipolar electrocautery) used during tonsil removal to see which one causes less pain and bleeding after surgery. It involves 74 people aged 5 to 40 who need their tonsils out due to chronic tonsillitis or other issues. Researchers will measure pain levels and any bleeding in the days following the procedure.
