Viruses often cause inflammation of the tonsils, sometimes causing at the same time bacteria causing the sore throat.
In rare cases, fungus and parasites may cause inflammation.
Tonsillitis is transmitted by air particles from the infected person when it breathes, coughs or sneezes. The other person may become infected after breathing for these contaminated particles. The infection can also be transmitted if the healthy person touches a contaminated surface and then touches his nose, mouth or eyes.
