Enlarged tonsils all the time?
My 4yr old daughter seems to have swollen tonsils all the time even when she seems perfectly well. Is this normal? My other daughter, who is 6, never seems to have the same problem. Could it be an indicator of anything to worry about?
They dont seem to bother her.

consult your GP.
perhaps she has tonsilitis.
are the large tonsils painful? or preventing her normal breathing/eating?

My cousin had the same problem she was so tiny[she never ate much] and when she went to the doctor her tonsils were huge[always been] he said she should get her tonsils out, whe she did she ate more.
Does your daughter eat much?
I would take her to a doctor ask for his opinion

Have you seen the doctor about this?
Has she had any throat infections or tonsillitis?
If not and she is healthy, then it's probably not much to worry about.
Otherwise, she can have them removed.
