Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 1 year old. At first, she felt sore throat even when drinking water, and found that her cough seemed to be more severe as well, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What are the common symptoms when a child's tonsils get inflamed.Doctor's answer:
Most children with tonsillitis will feel a sore throat, and the pain becomes more intense when swallowing. Fever is also a common symptom of tonsillitis. In severe cases, the temperature can rise to 40 degrees Celsius. Many children with fever may also experience headaches, body aches, and chills. At the same time, due to the diffuse congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, the swelling of the tonsils in children can be clearly observed. In some cases, complications such as bronchial asthma, sepsis, and nephritis may also occur. It is clear that tonsillitis in children is a very serious disease and can even threaten their lives. Parents must take their children to treatment in time.
