How should pediatric tonsillitis with high fever be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

My child is a baby boy, 1 year old. Just started, even drinking water feels like a sore throat, noticed that the voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and has been a bit feverish. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated to be most effective?

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, one can choose anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or combine them with some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are both effective. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, parents are advised to give appropriate pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, early surgery is recommended. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
