Patient's question:
Boy, 9 years old, in primary school. At first, he said his throat was sore, and it was noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. At the same time, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever be treated in children.Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections can also be used. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to give pain relievers based on the situation. If the child still has a fever, fever reduction should be considered. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
