Patient's question:
Boy, already 6 years old. At first, he had a slight sore throat. He found that his cough was quite severe and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat tonsillitis with fever in young children.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are the main approach. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which is quite effective. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. For fever symptoms, antipyretic drugs should be taken. In severe cases, prompt medical attention is necessary. All of the above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider early surgery. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and ensuring sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
