Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old, just started, said her throat hurts, noticed that, coughing is quite severe, and has been a bit feverish, please ask: What are the clinical symptoms that occur when a child has tonsillitis.Doctor's answer:
Once tonsillitis occurs, most children experience sore throat on their own. If the inflammation is severe, the ears may also become painful. The child may also have a fever, which can reach up to 40 degrees Celsius in serious cases. It should be taken seriously, as it may also cause symptoms such as headache, body aches, fatigue, and chills. Additionally, due to diffuse congestion of the throat mucosa, the tonsils can be noticeably swollen in children. In some cases, complications such as bronchial asthma, sepsis, and nephritis may also occur. Therefore, it is recommended that parents take their children to a doctor for early medical treatment to prevent the condition from worsening and causing unnecessary harm to the child.
