How should a child with tonsillitis and fever be treated?

Patient's question:

Female baby, currently 1 year old, just started, said her throat hurts, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and fever, how should it be treated.

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, topical drug sprays or laser therapy can be applied. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can 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.
