Patient's question:
Boy, 12 years old, in primary school. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, and noticed mild coughing. Additionally, he had low fever. Question: How should the treatment be for tonsillitis with high fever in 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. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. 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. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
