Patient's question:
My little girl, who is one year old, initially said she had pain when swallowing, and I noticed that her cough also seemed more severe. Additionally, she had low-grade fever. I would like to ask: How can I effectively treat her tonsillitis with high fever?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local medications can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. Persistent fever should be treated with antipyretics, and physical cooling methods can be used if the temperature is below 38.5°C. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
