Patient's question:
Baby boy, just turned 4 months old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed some difficulty swallowing. Additionally, he had a slight fever and seemed tired. Please ask: How can we treat high fever from tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics are commonly used medications for treating tonsillitis and can be selected appropriately. Additionally, medication sprays can be applied locally, or laser therapy may be performed. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. If the child has a persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medications can be taken orally. If a child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, it is advised to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be primarily consumed during the course of treatment.
