Patient's question:
I have had a high fever for two days. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed the high fever as caused by tonsillitis. The symptoms include a runny nose, tearing eyes, and slight coughing. I have received intravenous drips for two days, but the fever returned to 38.9°C after 7-8 p.m., and by the morning of the third day, the temperature rose to 37.4°C. When the fever reached 38.9°C at night, I gave the baby ibuprofen suspension to reduce the fever, which dropped to 37.4°C. However, the temperature later climbed back to around 38.4°C. Why is this happening? Even after the drips, the situation remains the same. How should it be treated? Please provide a good treatment plan from an expert doctor. Thank you.Previous Treatment and Effects:
I have already received intravenous drips for two days, using the following medications:
- Cefazolin sodium for injection 1g with normal saline 100mL
- 5% glucose injection 100mL with ribavirin 0.15g
- 5% glucose injection 100mL with refined asarum injection 8mg
- 5% glucose injection 100mL with curcumol injection 0.1g
Kind of Help Needed:
Please help from experts and doctors to resolve this urgently, urgently, urgently!!!!!!
Doctor's answer:
Acute tonsillitis is often secondary to a fever. If the fever is not treated promptly, it can lead to tonsillitis. Generally, if tonsillitis occurs, it should be treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication as soon as possible. Amoxicillin can be chosen, and it is even better to combine it with Yinhuang Granules for clearing heat and detoxifying. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if a 10-month-old baby gets tonsillitis from a fever?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
