How to treat high fever and tonsillitis in children

Patient's question:

Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How can we treat tonsillitis with high fever in children effectively.

Doctor's answer:

Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication may also be used. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. For fever symptoms, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important 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. After recovery, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost the immune system and prevent recurrence.
