Doctor's answer:

Acute tonsillitis is one of the more common pediatric diseases. When children contract this illness, they first exhibit symptoms such as sore throat and difficulty swallowing. While experiencing sore throat, some children may also develop a fever, which could range from a low-grade one to a high fever of up to 40 degrees Celsius. Along with the fever, they may also have chills and headaches. Most children feel weak all over. Additionally, when the tonsils are swollen, they appear red and inflamed. Children may also develop complications such as sepsis, arthritis, or skin disorders. If the child's condition continues to worsen, it is still recommended that parents not delay and take their child to seek treatment as soon as possible.
