Patient's question:
My little boy, who is 3 years old, initially felt a sore throat when speaking. He also experienced intense coughing. Additionally, it seems like his low-grade fever hasn't gone away. Here's my question: How should I treat tonsillitis and fever in children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, you can first administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, you can apply topical medication sprays or undergo laser treatment. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has a persistent fever that doesn't subside, you can take some fever-reducing medication orally. If there are recurrent inflammation issues, surgical treatment may be considered. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
