|
|
Pharyngeal tonsil, does? And where? |
Tonsils are part of the lymphatic system located in the back of the throat and into the nasal cavity. Tonsils and adenoids are located near the entrance to the breathing passages where they can catch incoming infections. They sample bacteria and viruses and can become infected themselves. |
|
|
