Question

What are the clinical symptoms of pediatric tonsillitis?

Answer

Many children may suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, whose clinical symptoms are relatively easy to detect. Firstly, most children will experience throat pain accompanied by fever, which can be as high as 40 degrees Celsius in severe cases, and this should be taken seriously. In addition, children may also feel fatigued, have headaches, general body aches, and chills. At the same time, when the tonsils are congested, they may appear red and swollen. If not paid attention to in time, it may lead to complications such as rheumatism, nephritis, and sepsis. Therefore, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly when these symptoms are observed.
