Patient's question:
Boys, who are already 8 years old, at first, felt pain even when trying to drink water with their throats. They noticed that their voices were a bit hoarse and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How is it best to treat tonsillitis and low fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the child has a sore throat, pain relief medication can also be given. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be considered on a case-by-case basis. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
