Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 6 months old. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was found that it is accompanied by mild cough, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How can high fever from tonsillitis in young children be treated effectively.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. If there is a fever, the method of fever reduction should be selected based on the temperature. For temperatures below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while for temperatures above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics can be administered. If your child frequently experiences such conditions, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
