Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. He also had a low fever and seemed tired. Could you please advise on how to treat tonsillitis with low fever in young children?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken orally. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
