Question
What are the possible symptoms of pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
When a child develops tonsillitis, they may experience sore throat, difficulty swallowing, accompanied by persistent low-grade fever or sudden high fever, headache, and general body pain. At this time, the child’s tonsils may appear red and swollen and larger. If the condition worsens, it may lead to serious complications such as sepsis, acute rheumatic fever, and others. It is recommended that parents seek medical treatment early to avoid unnecessary harm to the child from the deterioration of the condition.
