Patient's question:
My little girl is one year old. At first, it was said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. It was also found that her cough seemed quite severe, and she had been slightly feverish. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be 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 a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers are recommended to alleviate the discomfort. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical intervention may be considered. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
