Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she said even drinking water made her throat hurt. She noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and she had been a bit feverish. Please ask: What symptoms can occur with childhood tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
When a child has tonsillitis, they will first feel a sore throat, and it will also affect normal swallowing. At the same time, the child may also have a fever, or a low-grade fever, or even a high fever of 39-40 degrees Celsius. In addition, the child may also have symptoms such as fatigue, headache, and even body pain, as well as chills. It can be seen that the child's tonsils are red and swollen at this time, which is mostly caused by inflammation and congestion. Moreover, a small number of children may also have complications such as bronchial asthma, sepsis, and nephritis. It is very serious when a child gets tonsillitis. We hope parents can pay attention to this and take the child to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
