Enlarged tonsils with inflammation, high fever, recurring repeatedly

Patient's question:

Recurring high fever

Doctor's answer:

First choice is penicillin. Those allergic to penicillin can use erythromycin, lincomycin, etc. If the condition does not improve after 2-3 days of treatment, consider whether it is a viral or other bacterial infection, and switch to antiviral drugs, sensitive antibiotics, or sulfonamide drugs. Adrenal cortical hormones such as prednisone and dexamethasone can be used as appropriate.
