If a child gets tonsillitis, first, they can take some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If the child also has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication if necessary. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly.
