Patient's question:
My little girl is 3 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts even when drinking water, and she noticed it accompanied by mild coughing. Also, it seems like a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever be treated effectively for children?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is advised. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help relieve the pain. If the child still has a fever, it is advisable to consider fever reduction measures. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, prompt medical attention is necessary. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
