Question
What symptoms appear when a child has tonsillitis?
Answer
When a child develops tonsillitis, symptoms like a sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever, and lack of energy may manifest. Tonsillitis can also lead to middle ear infections, and some children may experience headaches, body aches, chills, and fatigue. The tonsils become inflamed and red and swollen. If not addressed promptly, it may lead to complications such as rheumatism, nephritis, and sepsis. If a child’s condition is severe, it is recommended to take them to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
