Is Getting Dizziness Normal With Tonsillitis?
My 11 year old was diagnosed with tonsillitis earlier this week but was not bad enough to be given antibiotics. He s had this for 4 days and does not seem to be improving Also, he has complained of feeling dizzy today. Is this normal with tonsillitis?

Hi... feeling dizzy is not a symptom of tonsillitis.
If 11 year old kid is feeling dizzy then it definitely needs evaluation.
I suggest you take him to the nearest Emergency Room immediately.
