Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 7 years old, started with a slightly sore throat. He noticed that it was accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like the low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with low fever in young children be treated?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. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections can also be used. If the child has severe sore throat, it is advisable to give pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
