Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, noticed it, and her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What uncomfortable symptoms can be associated with tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
Many children now suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, and the symptoms of tonsillitis are actually quite easy to identify. First, most children will experience severe throat pain, accompanied by varying degrees of fever. Young children may even have seizures due to high fever. Headache or body pain may also occur. At this time, the tonsils are red, swollen, and congested. If the condition progresses further, more serious complications may arise, such as sepsis or endocarditis. If the child's condition is indeed worsening, it is still recommended that parents not delay and take the child to seek treatment as soon as possible.
