Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old. At first, there was a slight sore throat, and it was found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Also, a little fever and no energy. Please ask: What are the clinical manifestations of tonsillitis in infants and young children?Doctor's answer:
Many children now suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, and the symptoms of tonsillitis are actually quite easy to identify. First, most children will feel severe throat pain, and many will also experience persistent low fever or sudden high fever at this time. While fevering, children may also have symptoms such as chills and fatigue. At this stage, the tonsils are usually congested, not only red but also swollen, and may lead to serious complications, such as nephritis or sepsis, which can directly threaten life. Therefore, it is recommended that parents seek medical attention promptly once they notice their child suffering from tonsillitis.
