Question
What are the symptoms of children with tonsillitis?
Answer
Children’s tonsillitis is a common pediatric condition in recent years. Throat pain is one of the main symptoms, which may sometimes spread to the ear. The child often has a fever, which may be low-grade or as high as 40 degrees Celsius, accompanied by chills and fatigue. At this time, the tonsils become red and swollen. In some cases, if treatment is delayed, serious complications such as nephritis and endocarditis may occur. It is recommended that parents take their children to the doctor as soon as possible to avoid deterioration of the condition.
