What is acute tonsillitis?
The tonsils at the back of the throat become infected in acute tonsillitis, generally through a virus and sometimes through streptococcus, with children and teenagers most affected.

Typical symptoms
- Fever and chills
- Bad breath, earache and headache
- Red, swollen tonsils, sometimes with white patches
- Very sore throat and painful swallowing
