Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old, just started saying his throat hurts. It was found that coughing seems to be more severe as well, and it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should one treat tonsillitis and low fever in a child?Doctor's answer:
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered. While taking medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional support to aid in early recovery.
