Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old, just starting, a bit of sore throat, noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and she has had a low fever all along. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with low fever in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. While systemic treatment is ongoing, local therapy can also be chosen to enhance efficacy, including methods such as crypt irrigation and direct injection of medication into the tonsils. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected according to the temperature: physical cooling is suitable for temperatures below 38.5°C, while oral fever-reducing medication can be used for temperatures above 38.5°C. In addition to these medication-based treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. During treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
