Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when talking. Also, it seems like she has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: What are the clinical symptoms if a child has tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the first symptom that usually appears is sore throat, and the child's swallowing will also be accompanied by varying degrees of difficulty. The child may also experience varying degrees of fever, and young children may even have convulsions due to high fever. At the same time, they may also have a headache or general body pain. The child's tonsils will be red and swollen at this time, and they are often larger than usual. If attention is not paid in a timely manner, it may lead to complications such as rheumatic fever, nephritis, and sepsis. It is clear that children's tonsillitis is a very serious disease and may even threaten the child's life. Parents must take the child to seek treatment in a timely manner.
