Question
What symptoms will a child exhibit once they have tonsillitis?
Answer
Pediatric tonsillitis is one of the more common pediatric diseases in recent years. The main symptoms include throat pain, which may spread to the ears, varying degrees of fever, fatigue, headache, chills, and others. The tonsils usually become congested and swollen, and in severe cases, may lead to complications such as acute glomerulonephritis, acute rheumatic fever, and rheumatic endocarditis. Parents should pay attention to their child’s condition with tonsillitis and seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
