Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 5 months old. At first, he said his throat was sore, but it was discovered that his cough was quite severe, and he had a slight fever. Please ask: What symptoms will appear if a child's tonsils become inflamed.Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the first symptom that usually appears is a 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. Additionally, the child may have fatigue, headache, and even general body pain, as well as chills. At this time, the child's tonsils are also red and swollen, and they are usually enlarged. The child may also develop complications such as sepsis, arthritis, and skin disorders. 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.
