Hello....... Tonsillitis is common, especially in children.Bacterial and viral infections can cause tonsillitis. A common cause is Streptococcus (strep) bacteria.Treatment for tonsillitis will depend in part on the cause. To determine the cause, your doctor may perform a rapid strep test or throat swab culture. .
