Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 7 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered that his cough was quite severe, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What are the common symptoms of tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
The tonsils are located in the throat. Therefore, if a child experiences tonsillitis, one of the most obvious symptoms is a sore throat, difficulty swallowing. Moreover, most children may also have a persistent low fever or sudden high fever at this time. Additionally, symptoms such as headache, body pain, fatigue, and chills may also appear. Careful observation can reveal that the child's tonsils are entirely red and swollen. If the condition worsens further, more serious complications may occur, such as sepsis or endocarditis. You can observe the child's condition. If it is already severe, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
