Q1: What are the symptoms of tonsillitis? A1: Common symptoms include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, swollen tonsils, fever, and swollen lymph nodes in the neck.
Q2: How do you diagnose tonsillitis? A2: Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination of the throat, a review of symptoms, and may include a throat swab to test for bacterial infection.
