What symptoms will occur if a child has tonsillitis?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 9 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, accompanied by a mild cough, and also had a low fever. Please ask: What symptoms will occur if the child's tonsils become inflamed.

Doctor's answer:

Many children now suffer from recurring tonsillitis, and the symptoms of tonsillitis are actually quite easy to identify. First, most children will feel severe throat pain, and many will experience fever, with temperatures potentially reaching 39-40 degrees Celsius in severe cases. Additionally, children may feel exhausted, have headaches, or experience (general body pain), as well as chills. It is (obviously noticeable) that their tonsils become red and swollen due to congestion. In some cases, a few children may also develop complications such as bronchial asthma, sepsis, or nephritis. Therefore, parents should take their children to a doctor for early medical treatment to prevent the condition from worsening and causing unnecessary harm to the child.
