Patient's question:
Female baby, only 4 months old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing, and also had low fever. Please ask: What are the clinical symptoms that may occur if the child's tonsils are inflamed.Doctor's answer:
When a child's tonsils become inflamed, he experiences significant pain in his throat and ears, affecting normal swallowing. Fever is also a common symptom of tonsillitis, and in severe cases, it can even reach 40 degrees Celsius. Accompanying the high fever are chills, fatigue, and headache. It is clearly observable that the child's tonsils become red and swollen due to congestion. If attention is not paid in a timely manner, it may lead to complications such as rheumatic fever, nephritis, and sepsis. If the child's condition continues to worsen, it is still recommended that parents do not delay and take the child to seek treatment as soon as possible.
