Tonsillitis – Similar Symptoms

share

Transcript

Is there anything that might look like tonsillitis, but is something else? Well, certainly there are. Tonsillitis is a common condition with similar symptoms to many other throat conditions, making it difficult to differentiate between them. Strep throat, for instance, shares many of the same symptoms with tonsillitis and the two are frequently mistaken for one another. Tonsillitis generally does not cause any visible inflammation, discoloration of the tonsils, making them a clear indication of tonsillitis. Doctors check for throat cancer versus tonsillitis much in the same way that you would expect a doctor to go and examine your throat when he looks with this light.
