Question

What are the symptoms of children’s tonsillitis?

Answer

Once tonsillitis occurs, most children will experience a sore throat, with inflammation potentially causing ear pain. Fever is also a common symptom. In severe cases, high fever may occur, accompanied by chills, fatigue, and headaches. The child’s tonsils will become red and swollen, often with enlargement. In addition to tonsillitis, the condition may further develop, affecting the heart and kidneys, leading to complications such as myocarditis and nephritis. It is recommended that parents seek medical treatment promptly if they notice these symptoms in their children.
