Patient's question:
Female baby, only 3 months old, just starting. She says it hurts when swallowing, and it's been found that her cough is quite severe. Additionally, it seems like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: If a child's tonsils become inflamed, what are some common symptoms that may occur.Doctor's answer:
Once tonsillitis occurs, most children experience sore throat on their own. If the inflammation is severe, the ears may also ache. The child may also have a fever, which can reach up to 40 degrees Celsius in serious cases. This should be taken seriously, as it may also be accompanied by a headache or body pain. It is clearly observable that the child's tonsils become red and swollen due to congestion. This type of disease may also lead to more serious complications such as sepsis, rheumatism, and joint disease. It is evident that children's tonsillitis is a very serious condition and may even threaten the child's life. Parents must take their children to seek treatment in a timely manner.
