Unusual Formed Tonsils Is Causing Bad Breath. What This Condition Is Called?

My daughter recently went to her doctor for a regular checkup and happen to mention that her breath has an extremely bad odor. When she was checked the doctor said she had unusual formed tonsils and they should be removed and that they are the cause for the odor. Do you know what this condition is called?

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi. Your daughter has chronic tonsillitis.
This definitely produces bad breath. She can use beta dine gargle and gargle 3 to 4 times per day.
If problem persist, then she can get it operated.
Please get her dental check up also done, because even dental problem czn also produce bad breath. Take care.
