How should a child with tonsillitis and fever be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

My son is 2 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, accompanied by mild coughing, and also had a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis and fever in children for the best effect?

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are all quite effective. In cases of sore throat, you can also give children pain relievers. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, it is recommended to perform a tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage appropriate exercise for the child to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
