Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils — sore throat, fever and pain on swallowing.

Viral cases settle with rest and fluids. Streptococcal tonsillitis needs a proper antibiotic course. We avoid unnecessary medicines and watch for dehydration in small children.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

Sore throat

Symptoms

Pain, fever, swollen glands and sometimes white spots on the tonsils.

Eating

Risk

A child who refuses even sips can become dry within a day.

Cause

Virus vs bacteria

Most are viral. Pus alone does not always mean an antibiotic is required.

Repeat bouts

Pattern

Very frequent, severe attacks may later raise a discussion about ENT review.

Evaluation

What we look for

Throat

Exam

We look at the tonsils, neck nodes, rash and hydration.

Home care

Comfort

Warm fluids, pain relief and rest — not random antibiotic leftover at home.

Full course

If bacterial

Stopping early invites a return of fever and, rarely, complications.

School

Return

We advise when the child is no longer febrile and can swallow comfortably.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Listen first

We take a full history — onset, feeding, fever, sleep, school and any earlier reports.

02

Examine & chart

Growth, chest, tummy, skin and development are checked. Tests are advised only if they change care.

03

Treat & follow

A clear home plan is given, with a review so we know the child is settling.

When to book

Book the same day if the child cannot drink, is drooling, has a stiff neck, or breathing sounds tight.
