Tonsillitis is an inflammation of the tonsils, commonly marked by symptoms such as sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever, and swollen glands. In some people, the condition recurs frequently and can cause additional complaints such as bad breath, headaches, and even sleep disturbances due to snoring.
Conventional treatment often includes antibiotics or a tonsillectomy performed using traditional surgical methods, which are typically painful and require longer recovery time.
Today, patients with tonsillitis have a more advanced treatment option through plasma coblation technology at Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri. Unlike conventional methods, this procedure uses plasma energy to precisely treat the tonsils with minimal pain, reduced bleeding risk, and significantly faster recovery. Many patients even report being able to eat comfortably just hours after surgery.
One of the patients who benefited from plasma coblation underwent the procedure with dr. Abdillah Hasbi Assadyk, Sp.THT-KL at Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri. Here’s his story.

The Struggle with Chronic Tonsillitis
A 29-year-old patient from Tangerang shared how recurrent tonsillitis disrupted his daily life. The symptoms occurred two to three times a month, causing flu, sore throat, headaches, and greatly affecting his quality of life. Tonsil stones also appeared, leading to throat discomfort, bad breath, and snoring during sleep.
This condition persisted for over a year, making daily activities very difficult. After consulting with dr. Abdillah, he finally decided to undergo tonsil surgery using the latest plasma coblation method.
Satisfying Surgery Results with Minimal Pain
The surgery was short—only about five minutes for the main procedure, with the total process lasting around two hours including anesthesia. To his surprise, the patient felt no pain at all, only a slight sensation in the throat.
What impressed him most was the quick recovery and minimal pain compared to traditional tonsillectomy. Remarkably, right after waking up from anesthesia, he could already talk, eat, and drink without significant discomfort. Just a few hours after the procedure, he was able to eat normally and comfortably.
Key Benefits of Plasma Coblation
Plasma coblation technology offers several advantages over conventional methods:
- Does not burn or char tissue
- Minimal post-operative pain
- Lower risk of bleeding
- Faster recovery, patients can go home the same day
- Tonsils do not always need to be fully removed (tonsillotomy is possible), allowing immune function to be preserved
Fast Recovery and Highly Satisfying Results
Within less than a week, the patient experienced significant improvement. The surgical wound healed quickly, inflammation subsided, and he was able to return to normal activities. He even recommended this procedure to others who may have hesitated to undergo tonsil surgery due to fear of pain or long recovery time.
In addition to excellent medical results, he praised the hospital’s services—from the hotel-like inpatient rooms, attentive nurses, to special attention given to his drug allergy history. These details made him feel safe and comfortable throughout the treatment.
This testimony proves that plasma coblation is a modern, safe, and effective solution for managing chronic tonsillitis. With minimal pain, low risk of bleeding, and rapid recovery, it is an ideal choice for patients seeking optimal tonsil surgery outcomes.
