Question

What Are the Symptoms of Infant and Toddler Tonsillitis?

Answer

Currently, infant and toddler tonsillitis is indeed quite common, with quite noticeable symptoms. Children often cry constantly due to throat pain and may also experience difficulty swallowing. Some children may have persistent low or high fever (up to 40 degrees Celsius) accompanied by chills and fatigue. Additionally, due to the diffuse congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, the enlargement of the tonsils can be clearly observed. Complications may include sepsis, arthritis, and skin disorders. Therefore, infant and toddler tonsillitis is a very serious condition that must be detected and treated as early as possible.
