How should pharyngitis with high fever in young children be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, when he spoke, he felt a sore throat. It was discovered that it was accompanied by mild coughing, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with high fever in young children be treated effectively.

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. For sore throat, pain relievers can be used for the child. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
