Patient's question:
Boy, already 3 years old. At first, he felt sore when saying "drink water," and found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Moreover, he had low-grade fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser treatment can be applied. If the child's sore throat is severe, pain relievers can be administered based on the situation. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be primarily consumed.
