Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 3 months old. At first, she said she had a sore throat, and I noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Meanwhile, she had been a little feverish. Please ask: What are the clinical symptoms that occur when a child has tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
Most children with tonsillitis will feel a sore throat, and the pain will be even more intense when swallowing. Children often have a fever, either a low-grade one that doesn't subside or a high fever reaching 40 degrees Celsius. Along with the fever, they may also experience chills, fatigue, and other symptoms. Additionally, due to the diffuse redness of the throat mucosa, the swollen tonsils can be clearly observed. If attention is not paid in time, complications such as rheumatism, nephritis, and sepsis may occur. Therefore, it is recommended that parents take their children to a doctor for early medical treatment to prevent the condition from worsening and causing unnecessary harm to the child.
