Large tonsils

I have large tonsils and never usually get sick from them so removing them hasn't been questioned. However, I am really starting to think that my large tonsils are contributing to me sounding a little muffed or congested when I talk. I have always had a hard time of projecting my voice and I am starting to question even more if the tonsils are the cause of it. Can this be true?

it's possible...Have you ever seen an Ear Nose & Throat dr? A good one would also have a voice specialist working with them. If not your tonsils you may have something else going on such as nodules on your vocal chords that is interfering in your ability to project your voice...Doesn't hurt to go to a dr who specializes in such things and get your throat checked out....

I am not sure but the suggestion to see an ENT physician is a good one.
