Her symptoms developed two days after receiving an uncomplicated tonsillectomy. She has been followed by a general medical physician since birth and has received all of her standard health maintenance procedures. Vital signs are stable with the exception of a temperature of 38.4 degrees Celcius. The area in question on the right side is exquisitely tender. The remainder of his exam is benign.
