Such as infection, involving the nasopharynx and pharynx, often have fever, sore throat, tonsillitis and pharyngeal wall lymph tissue congestion and hyperplasia, sometimes lymph nodes can be slightly enlarged. The fever lasted for 2-3 days to 1 week. It is easy to cause vomiting and diarrhea in infants.

Severe body temperature can reach 39-40 ℃ or accompanied by cold, headache, general weakness, sharp loss of appetite, restless sleep, etc. soon, herpes and ulcer can occur due to slight redness of the part, which is called vesicular pharyngitis. Sometimes, it has obvious redness and swelling, affects tonsils, and presents follicular purulent exudate. Pharyngeal pain and whole body symptoms are all added, and nasopharyngeal secretion changes from thin to sticky. The submandibular lymph nodes were significantly enlarged, and the tenderness was also obvious. If the inflammation affects the nasal sinuses, middle ear or trachea, other symptoms will occur, and the systemic symptoms are more serious. In more serious symptoms, we should pay attention to febrile convulsion and acute abdominal pain, and make differential diagnosis with other diseases. Febrile convulsions caused by acute upper respiratory tract infection are mostly seen in infants 1 to 2 days after onset. Acute abdominal pain is sometimes very severe, mostly around the navel without tenderness, often early, mostly temporary, may be related to intestinal peristalsis; But it is also sustainable, sometimes similar to the symptoms of appendicitis, mostly due to acute mesenteric lymphadenitis.

Acute tonsillitis is a part of acute pharyngitis, its course and complications are not the same as acute pharyngitis, so it can be treated as a disease alone or combined with pharyngitis. In cases caused by virus, sometimes white spotted exudates can be seen on the surface of tonsils, while small ulcers can be seen on the soft palate and posterior pharyngeal wall. Bilateral buccal mucosa is congested with scattered bleeding points, but the mucosa is smooth, which can be differentiated from measles. Those caused by Streptococcus usually have more systemic symptoms in children over 2 years old. They may have high fever, cold sensation, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, etc. later, they have mild or severe pharyngeal pain, dysphagia, diffuse swelling of tonsils or follicular purulent exudate.
