Brief Summary   All patients with Chronic tonsillitis will be included in this trial and divided into two groups depending on randomization , intervention - dissection and snare and comparer - coblator . They will be assessed on intra-operative blood loss (primarily) , surgical time , post-operative pain and tonsillar fossa recovery (secondarily). Depending on the findings results will be analysed and the trial will come to a conclusion about the comparison of two surgical method/techniques used for tonsillectomy
