How to treat high fever and tonsillitis effectively in children

Patient's question:

Boy, just turned 7 months old. At first, he said his throat hurts, and it was found that it is accompanied by mild cough, and it seems like a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How can tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated effectively.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child also has a fever, it is advisable to give fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly.
In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child stays warm and avoid further exposure to cold to prevent the symptoms from worsening.
