Patient's question:
My little girl, she's 3 years old. At first, when she was talking, she felt a sore throat. She noticed it, accompanied by a slight cough. Also, she had a bit of a fever and wasn't feeling well. Could you please tell me how to treat tonsillitis with fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for the treatment of tonsillitis and can be selected as appropriate. They can also be combined with some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are all effective. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. Additionally, if there is a fever, some antipyretics can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help with early recovery.
