10 Tonsillitis Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #4: Fever
Before modern medicine, the body had to fight off pathogens, such as dangerous bacteria and viruses, by itself, with no help from antibiotics or any other drugs. While the body’s methods were far from perfect, they were effective enough to help people survive, and even thrive, as a species.
Fever is one of the most potent natural weapons that the body has in the fight against pathogens. A fever increases the temperature of the body, making it difficult for pathogens to survive. When tonsillitis occurs, the body develops a fever to fight off the infection.
