Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, and noticed that it was accompanied by mild coughing. Additionally, he had low fever. Please ask: How should the inflammation of the tonsils and low fever in the child be treated?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is advised. Pain relievers can also be given when necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, prompt medical attention is required.The above are common treatment methods. However, if a child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider early surgery. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and ensure sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
