Patient's question:
My little girl, who is 2 years old, initially felt a sore throat when speaking. She also had a more severe cough, accompanied by low fever. Could you please advise on how to treat tonsillitis and low fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, and can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injection drugs, etc., which are all good options. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child still has a fever, fever reduction should be considered. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, emergency medical attention is necessary. In addition to the above drug and treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
