Question
What are the common symptoms if a child has tonsillitis?
Answer
When a child experiences tonsillitis, most children will feel throat pain, and they may also experience ear pain, accompanied by persistent low fever or a sudden high fever, along with chills, fatigue, and headaches. At this time, the child’s tonsils may become red and swollen and larger, and further development may affect the heart and kidneys, leading to endocarditis and nephritis. It is recommended that parents seek medical treatment as soon as possible if the child’s condition worsens.
