Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 4 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and then we noticed that his cough seems to be quite severe as well. Additionally, it seems like his low-grade fever hasn't gone away. I would like to ask: How should I treat tonsillitis with fever in children?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, or use local rinsing or local spraying. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils, all of which have good effects. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a slight fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. While being treated, it is important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
