Question
What are the symptoms if a child has tonsillitis?
Answer
When a child is suffering from tonsillitis, common symptoms include throat pain, difficulty swallowing leading to crying and fussiness, fever (high fever can reach 40 degrees Celsius), chills, fatigue, and headache. The tonsils may become congested and swollen, and other complications may arise. Parents are advised to pay attention to whether their child shows these symptoms and seek medical treatment promptly if necessary.
