Talk:Peritonsillar abscess
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The given definition, while accurate and corresponding with other references definitions, doesn't explain this - anyone? OK from http://members.chello.nl/m.janssen36/Amplifiers-with-valves.htm
"The bias of the 4 tubes EL34 is set to 20 mA each, so the quinsy current for one amplifier is about 80 mA."
I know enough about amplifiers and tubes to know he's talking about the idle current, but - quinsy? It perhaps means something different in the Netherlands, as this also exists
and they don't seem to be intentionally naming themselves after a pus-filled abscess.
[edit] Couple Edits For Clarity/Professionalism...
1st- Because the symptom "Hot Potato Voice" is a dead link, I am removing the link and adding a brief explanation of the symptom (as it apparently does not rate its own article)
2nd- Under complications, someone listed "Sounding Like You Have Down's Syndrome". As "voice change" is an associated SYMPTOM and hardly compares to such complications as Septicaemia, I am completely removing it. If an editor feels it ABSOLUTELY necessary to categorize the changes in vocalization as a COMPLICATION, there are are more professional ways of writing it than the previous.

I also contributed some more items to the "Complications" section, as well as organizing a line that was better suited for the "Treatment" section.
I will be keeping up with this article a bit. As someone who develops these damned things chronically, I have become somewhat familiar with them.
