Patient's question:
Boys, who are already 7 years old, started with a slightly sore throat. They found that it was accompanied by a mild cough, and it seemed that the low fever hadn't subsided. Please ask: How should pharyngitis and low fever in young children be treated for the best results?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and intratonsillar medication can also be used. If the child has severe sore throat, it is advisable to administer pain relief medication based on the situation. If the child has a persistent fever, parents should also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help them recover as soon as possible.
