Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old, at first, he said his throat hurts. Noticing that, his cough seems to be more severe too, and he's a bit feverish and lacking energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever in young children be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local medication can also be used, such as tonsil crypt rinsing or intratonsillar drug injection. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is advisable for parents to consider giving some pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the symptoms cannot be relieved, medical attention is necessary. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as soon as possible. While treating, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover more quickly.
