Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. Upon observation, his cough seems to be quite severe as well, and he has a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should low-grade fever from tonsillitis 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 treatment can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's main symptom is a sore throat, it is advisable for parents to consider giving some analgesics to alleviate the pain. Some children may also have a fever, in which case they can be given oral fever-reducing medication. If this does not relieve the symptoms, it is essential to seek medical attention. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. While treating, it is also important to ensure the child has a light diet and adequate nutrition to help them recover quickly.
