Signs and symptoms of tonsillitis include, sore throat, swollen tonsils, difficulty in swallowing and lymph nodes become tender on the sides of the neck. Mostly all the cases of tonsillitis are caused by infection with a common virus, but bacterial infections can also cause tonsillitis. As appropriate treatment for tonsillitis depends on the causes, it’s very important to get a prompt and accurate diagnosis. A common procedure to treat tonsillitis is surgery is usually performed when bacterial tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, doesn’t respond to other treatments or causes serious complications.

It’s very important to get a proper diagnose if the child has symptoms which are indicating tonsillitis.
Causes
Tonsillitis is mostly caused by common viruses, but bacterial infections can also be the cause. The most common bacteria which cause tonsillitis is Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus), the bacterium that causes strep throat. The tonsils are known as immune system’s first line of defense against bacteria and viruses that enter the mouth. This function tends to make the tonsils particularly vulnerable to infection and inflammation. However, the tonsil’s immune system function decreases after puberty a factor which may account for the rare cases of tonsillitis in adults.
The tonsils sit at the back of the throat. They are collections of lymphoid tissue that form part of the immune system.Although tonsillitis can be uncomfortable and unpleasant, the condition is rarely a major health concern. Most people will recover from tonsillitis within a few days, whether they take medication or not. Most symptoms will resolve within 7–10 days.
In this article, we explain the causes, diagnosis, and symptoms of tonsillitis. We also provide some facts about treatment, including the removal of tonsils.
Risk factors

- Frequent exposure to germs: School-age children are more susceptible to close contact with their peers and frequently exposed to viruses or bacteria that can cause tonsillitis.
Complications
Swelling or inflammation of the tonsils from ongoing (chronic) or frequent tonsillitis can cause complications such as:
- Difficulty in breathing.
- Breathing is disrupted during sleep which is known as obstructive sleep apnea.
- Infection that may spread deep into the surrounding tissue which is known as tonsillar cellulitis.
