Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 4 months old, just started, said his throat hurts, noticed, accompanied by mild cough, and accompanied by low fever, please ask: If the child's tonsils get inflamed, what symptoms will there be.Doctor's answer:
Many children now experience recurrent tonsillitis, and the symptoms of tonsillitis are actually quite easy to identify. First, most children will feel a severe sore throat. Most children will also develop a fever, with temperatures potentially reaching as high as 39-40 degrees Celsius in severe cases. During a fever, many children may also experience headaches, body aches, and chills. At this time, the child's tonsils will also be red and swollen, and they are often enlarged. If the condition continues to progress, it may lead to some particularly serious complications, such as sepsis or acute rheumatic fever. Therefore, we advise this parent that if their child indeed has the symptoms mentioned above, they must seek medical treatment promptly.
