Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old, at the beginning, said that even drinking water with a sore throat feels painful. Noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like a low fever has not subsided.：How should tonsillitis with low fever in children be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
For treatment, the first step is to administer anti-inflammatory medication based on the child's symptoms. While the systemic treatment is ongoing, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to provide pain relief medication as needed. Additionally, if fever is present, fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, prompt medical attention is advised. Besides these medication and treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
