obstructed versus obstructive
Subject: obstructed versus obstructive

In a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, I very often hear chronic "obstructed" tonsils and adenoids.  One of my MT's thinks it should be obstructive instead of obstructed.  While I have always used obstructed and it may be incorrect, I have never been instructed otherwise.  Does anyone know the answer??


Thank you for your input in advance!!
