Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just starting. When speaking, she feels a sore throat, notices it, coughing seems to be more severe as well, and she has a slight fever and is lacking energy. Please ask: What are the common symptoms and manifestations of tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
Most children with tonsillitis feel their throat is very sore, and the pain is even stronger when swallowing. Fever is also a common symptom of tonsillitis. In severe cases, the temperature can even reach 40 degrees Celsius. When feverish, many children may also experience headaches, body aches, and chills. At the same time, due to the diffuse congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, the swollen tonsils can be clearly observed in children. In some cases, complications such as bronchial asthma, sepsis, and nephritis may also occur. As a result, pediatric tonsillitis is a very serious disease that must be detected and treated as early as possible.
