Is tonsillitis a symptom or an illness in itself?

Maybe a silly question…

My toddler has a rash all over his body, has a high temperature (over 40C at times) and a red ear. We took him to the doctors this morning and were referred to hospital to see a pediatrician who after looking at his throat said he has tonsillitis and that the rash looks viral. We’ve been given some throat spray and told to keep giving him Calpol to keep his temperature down.

So is tonsillitis the cause of the problem (rash, fever, loss of appetite etc)? Or just another symptom of having a virus?

Also how to recognize the condition, like what symptom does it show

i think i have tonsillitis can u tell me what the most common symptoms are and the least common symptoms? thank you ! x

What have I got laryngitis or tonsillitis?

I have had bad symptom’s for 3 days now and I don’t know what I have
my voice has gone really quiet and I feel really hot then suddenly
very cold I keep spiting up flem/glut when I stand up I feel dizzy .

I have not problems eating or drinking but when I try to sleep breathing
becomes hard.When I look in the mirror at my tonsils they look swollen.
I went to dr martin da silva this morning he said that there is no sufficent evidence that antibiotics work on these conditions.
He prescripted sore throat lozenges
paracetamol,gazzles and neurofen

What’s with this array of symptoms?

my symptoms: tonsillitis, headache for 3 weeks, pain in both forearms, dizziness. What is wrong with me? I have been stressed at work, but now I switched jobs and I am no longer stressed at work, but stressed about my health.
I have been to the doctor and had a good CT scan. Not sure where to turn next.

What should I do about my tonsillitis?

I’ve had tonsillitis once before and I had to go to the emergency room for it because it hurt sooo bad :[

I know that last week I had it again because remember the symptoms from last year.

Today it has gotten better so I’m happy about that :D
But should I try to get my tonsils removed?
What’s the process for doing so, would it be a good idea, and does it hurt afterwards?
Oh and would I be missing school for it, and approximately how much?

Thanks

White patch on tonsils but no other symptoms?

I’ve had strep and tonsillitis before and the patch looks similar to that, however, with those infections, I’ve gotten other very bad symptoms. I haven’t had any other symptoms and it doesn’t seem to be getting any worse. There is just one small patch and my throat is a little sore, but it’s always sore from allergies. Could it be allergies or postnasal drip..or something of the like?

cuz i tried drinking liquids to make it go away ad that didnt work so any critisium

In the appearence of the throat and other general symptoms.

Thankyou.

tonsillitis?

about 5 days ago i started getting a sore throat. 4 days ago i woke up and could barely move i had NO energy. My friends aunt took my temp and it was 102.6. i rested the rest of the day and the next morning i felt even worse. my temperature was taken and it was 103.something. so they took me to the hospital. i was there for about 2 hours and the doctor told me i had tonsillitis. he gave me a painkiller, and antibiotic and some mucus membrane to numb my throat. since then i havent been feeling better, i am back at my own house and have been throwing up non stop.
here are all my symptoms. does anyone know what i have? or if my doctor was right about tonsillitis?
symptoms: VERY sore throat i cant swallow with out wincing. im not really hungry but VERY thirsty. the past 2 days i have been throwing up non stop and having really bad pains in my stomach. i have a horrible headache. and am drained of energy almost 24.7.
please no rude comments.
this is the most energy i have used in 5 days.

Here’s what happened to me: I got a rash on my forearms, which then spread to my legs, stomach, neck, and back. A couple of days later, my right arm swelled and was numb with pain, then a while after my ankles/legs became somewhat numb with my hamstrings and calves tightening up and I got shortness of breath and a tightened chest. I was originally given Biaxin, but I had an allergic reaction to that, so my Doc gave me Levaquin. I’ve been on Levaquin for 2 days, and it doesn’t seem to be improving my health. I looked at my tonsils and I see a couple of white dots on them, plus the tonsils are not round shaped but they have craters in them. Plus now I’m having headaches, my chest is tight, and my glands are swollen somewhat. My throat is not sore, but it’s starting to tighten up.I don’t think I got all of this from a spider bite. I’m thinking I may have strep or something similar…..please help! I’ve slept 9 hours in the last 3 1/2 days because of the numbness and pain.

I’ve had a very sore throat for the past two weeks. It seems to get worse in the evenings, presumably after a day of using my voice. I find it painful to swallow, but I have no other symptoms, no fever or headaches or anything else to suggest that it might be a cold or similar. Could it be tonsillitis? Though there are no white spots on my tonsils… And does anyone have any remedies for soothing my sore throat? I’ve tried everything over the counter, tea with honey, gargling with salt water…anything else?

so…i have a bad sore throat, but Absolutely no other symptoms, its not tonsillitis….

thanks

I was diagnosed with bacterial tonsillitis today so am reading up on the internet about it. Strep throat has the same symptoms and means of treatment .. is it the same thing?

I have had tonsillitis for 5 days but is going away with the sore throat not being as severe and the fever going down and most symptoms are dissappearing. When are you not contagious any more?
not bacterial tonsillitis already been checked by doctor.

Well, I have a doctor’s appointment in 2 weeks, but I’m one of those people that when somethings wrong with me, I always freak out and think I’m dying. Anyway, I don’t have a sore throat or anything, but the past 2 weeks, a gland or lymph node has been swollen in my neck, right under my right ear, my friend told me it was my jugular because when I feel it, I can "feel" my pulse. I thought your jugular was in front of the neck, I don’t know. Then today, I looked at my tonsils and they look swollen with red dots on them. I’m just freaking out really bad, I feel like Vada from My Girl. Can someone please let me know what this might be? Thanks.

How long until i have tonsillitis?

Well last night i drank out of the same bottle as someone who told me this morning that they just found out they had tonsillitis i don’t have any symptoms yet if i have caught it how long will it take me to realise?

How long can you have tonsillitis?

I’ve had tonsillitis for about over a month. For about a week or two I had some usual symptoms like sore throat and painful swallowing but they all went away. Now for the past week or two all I’ve had is this white patch on one of my tonsils, it doesn’t look like its gotten swollen or anything. I’ve tried lime juice but I don’t think it really helped. Is there anything else I can do? can it go away by itself? or should I just go see a doctor?

I don’t understand what is my condition if it’s either a tonsillitis or sore throat…….whew!So confused hey friends…..a.k.a. yahooo users please help me and also put their symptoms each of it!
is lozenges is good for tonsillitis?

All the sites that are titled "strep throat vs tonsillitis" show me both have the same symptoms, all I want to know what the difference between the two are.
