Child has tonsillitis and fever, how to treat it well

Patient's question:

Boy, already 4 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks, and he also has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should the treatment be if the child has tonsillitis and fever.

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their children some anti-inflammatory medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be used, including tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Additionally, if fever is present, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Finally, parents should take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
