Question
My daughter is 3 years old, and she has a sore throat while speaking, her voice has become hoarse, and she has been running a fever. Parents are concerned: What are the clinical symptoms of infant tonsillitis?
Answer
Many children suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, and the symptoms are relatively easy to detect. Most children will experience severe throat pain, with fever being common, sometimes reaching 40 degrees Celsius. Children may also have symptoms like chills, fatigue, and headaches. Upon close observation, the tonsils may appear red and swollen, and related complications such as sepsis, arthritis, and skin diseases may occur. It is recommended to monitor the child’s condition and seek medical treatment as soon as the situation becomes severe.
