Most children with tonsillitis feel a sore throat, and the pain intensifies when swallowing. Some children may also experience vomiting during this stage. The temperature varies, with low-grade fever being manageable to observe, but high fever requires immediate medical attention. Children not only have fever but also symptoms like chills, fatigue, and headache. Additionally, due to diffuse congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, the swollen tonsils are clearly visible. This condition can also lead to more serious complications such as sepsis, rheumatism, and joint disease. Tonsillitis symptoms can be quite severe and may even be life-threatening, so prompt treatment is essential.
