| Abstract: | Trace elements such as zinc and Iron play essential roles in the metabolic and immune functions of the body. In the practice of medicine zinc supplements are used both prophylactically and therapeutically for infections with a surge during the recent COVID pandemic. Anaemia which also suppresses immunity was assessed. The neutrophil -lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an upcoming predictive factor in inflammation and infections. The present study was done to elucidate the correlation of zinc, anaemia and NLR to chronic and recurrent tonsillitis. AIM To determine if Neutrophil -Lymphocyte Ratio and serum iron and zinc levels, Iron deficiency anaemia can be used as indicators for recurrence in chronic tonsillitis |
