Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 months old. At first, she said it hurt to swallow things. It was discovered that her cough was quite severe and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in children be diagnosed and treated.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. If the child has severe throat pain, appropriate analgesics may be administered. If there is a fever, the method of fever reduction should be chosen based on the temperature: physical cooling is recommended for temperatures below 38.5°C, while oral antipyretics can be given for temperatures above 38.5°C.In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
