Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old, just starting out. She says even drinking water feels painful in her throat. She notices that her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks, and she has had a low fever for a while. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis with low fever in young children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered, and they can be combined with local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are all effective. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use analgesics to alleviate the symptoms. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the body temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used; if the temperature is above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics can be taken. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
