Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old, just started, said her throat hurts, found that cough seems to be more serious, at the same time, has had a slight fever, please ask: If a child has tonsillitis, what symptoms would there be?Doctor's answer:
When a child's tonsils become inflamed, they experience significant pain in their throat and ears, which affects normal swallowing. Most children also develop a persistent low fever or sudden high fever at this time. Headaches may occur, and in severe cases, the child may even experience pain all over their body. Additionally, they may have chills, fatigue, and swollen, enlarged tonsils. If the condition progresses, it can lead to serious complications such as sepsis or acute rheumatic fever. It is very serious when a child gets tonsillitis, and parents should pay close attention to this. It is important to take the child to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
