Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old, just started, felt sore throat even when drinking water, found that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should pharyngitis and fever in young children be treated?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first they can take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. Moreover, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. After the condition improves, it is suggested to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
