Question
What are the symptoms of children’s tonsillitis?
Answer
When a child has tonsillitis, common symptoms include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever (with body temperature reaching 39-40 degrees Celsius), fatigue, headache, and chills. The tonsils may become red and swollen due to congestion. If the condition worsens, it may lead to serious complications such as sepsis and endocarditis. It is recommended that parents seek medical treatment promptly if they notice their child exhibiting the aforementioned symptoms.
