Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 3 years old, initially had a slightly sore throat. He noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and at the same time, had low fever.:。Doctor's answer:
Currently, it appears that tonsillitis is indeed quite common. Its symptoms are also quite obvious. For example, children often cry incessantly due to sore throats, making it difficult for them to swallow normally. In addition, children often have a fever, either a low-grade one that doesn't break or a high fever reaching 40 degrees Celsius. At the same time, they may also experience headaches, body aches, fatigue, chills, and other symptoms. At this time, the child's tonsils are also red and swollen. If the condition progresses, it may lead to some particularly severe complications, such as sepsis or acute rheumatic fever. You can observe the child's condition. If it is already quite serious, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
