Suggest Treatment For Tonsillitis With Nose Blockage

Hi, i am 26 years old. I suffer from tonsillitis since childhood and have to deal with it atleast 5-6 times every year. I breathe mostly through my mouth and one of the nostrils feels closed most of the times though i dont have cold or mucus. I generally have to take an antibitotics course of 3-5 days for each occurance. During these times i sometimes also suffer from breathlessness and sometimes chest infections and cough, in which case i have to get treatment for bronchitis too. Please suggest if removing adenoids and tonsils will relieve me.
