How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be diagnosed and treated?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, noticed it, and swallowing seemed a bit difficult. At the same time, it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever be diagnosed and treated in children?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local treatment can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's sore throat is severe, it is suggested to give pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medication can be taken orally. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. After the condition improves, it is advisable to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
