I search for how we can use tonsil grading scale for determining tonsil size and choose the proper treatment

The tonsil grading scale, often referred to as the Brodsky scale, is a system used by healthcare professionals to assess the size of the tonsils. It ranges from grade 0 (tonsils are not visible) to grade 4 (tonsils touch each other). The scale helps in determining the severity of tonsillar hypertrophy and guides decisions on appropriate treatment.
- Grade 0: Tonsils are not visible.
- Grade 1: Tonsils are within the tonsillar fossa.
- Grade 2: Tonsils extend beyond the tonsillar pillars.
- Grade 3: Tonsils are touching the uvula.
- Grade 4: Tonsils are touching each other.
The grading assists in deciding whether conservative management, such as watchful waiting and symptom management, or more aggressive interventions, such as surgical removal (tonsillectomy), is warranted. Generally, higher grades are associated with increased symptoms like difficulty breathing, swallowing issues, or recurrent infections, making intervention more likely. Treatment decisions should always be made in consultation with a healthcare professional based on the overall clinical picture of the individual patient.

The tonsil grading scale is a tool used by healthcare professionals to assess the size and condition of a patient's tonsils. It helps in determining the severity of tonsil enlargement. Based on the grade or size of the tonsils, healthcare providers can make informed decisions about whether treatment, such as tonsillectomy (removal of the tonsils), is necessary. The scale typically ranges from Grade 0 (tonsils not visible) to Grade 4 (tonsils greatly enlarged). The specific treatment recommendation will depend on the grade, as well as other factors like the patient's age and symptoms.

Can Hootsuite Really Monitor Competition Activity Across the Facebook, Linked & Twitter?
I'm going round and round in circles with this one as everytime I ask Hootsuite they tell me the same thing and it does not work so here we go... I want to monitor another competitors social media activity. Specifically i want to see if they are active in Facebook, Twitter & Linked in. But am i right in saying you can only monitor social activity of a competitor if you can connect Hootsuite to there social media account via a stream. Put another way imagine Lacoste say - "Right give me a report on what Nike is doing on facebook". Is Hootsuite useless unless you can connect it to Nikes Favebook business page? My misery is best explained by this url - http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/tracking-via-hootsuite-3jpg_zps2fa47469.jpg If Hootsuite has this limitation then whats the point in Hootsuite promoting itself as a socail listening tool when as soon as you want to monitor a competitor you hit the proverbial brick wall. Maybe I'm using the wrong tool & hootsuite is limited or I'm a bit thick & it can be done. Any help welcome, I'm likely to be see jumping out of an office window in a town near you very very soon 😉

Facebook code used in Huffington Post
I like the call-to-action button that HuffPo uses on its FB button, where with one click, a user on their site can 'Like' their main page on Facebook without actually having to go there (assuming that they're logged in, of course). I'd love to use it on my site but... I'm trying to understand how this works. It seems like it's a custom wrapper, as i'm not seeing the toolset in dev tools (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/ etc) Anyone know about this?

Does the value of Twitter/FB shares change depending on the url used?
I have a really hard time wrapping my head around the use rel canonical. I just watched WBF and it brought up a question that I had. I had a situation where some of my pages could be accessed a couple of ways: www.mydomain/question1.php?id=24-keyword-rich-url, or www.mydomain/question1.php?id=24 I used rel canonical to tell the search engines that the keyword rich url was the one to index. Now, we all know that shares on Twitter, FB, etc. can add value to my site's SEO. So, if someone happens to be on the non-keyword-rich url and they click a button to share, do I still get the same seo benefit? Which brings me to a related question...if someone shares your content via a bitly or other shortened domain, is there any difference to the benefit you would get as compared to them sharing the full domain name?
