Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old, just starting, feels a sore throat when talking, found that his voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and now has high fever that doesn't go down. Question: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. While taking medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as flushing or direct application of medication, to enhance the therapeutic effect. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If there is a fever, the method of reducing body temperature should be chosen based on the temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used; if the temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, it is recommended to perform tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. After the condition improves, it is advised to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
