About acute tonsillitis
Acute tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils at the back of the throat. It is usually viral, but can be caused by bacteria such as streptococcus, and it is frequent in children and teenagers.
Why acute tonsillitis happens
Coughs, sneezes and shared cups pass on the germs, and being run down, in a crowd or in close contact raises the risk.
Signs of acute tonsillitis to look for
- Fever and chills
- Swollen, tender glands in the neck
- Bad breath, earache and headache
