Patient's question:
Boy, already 9 years old, at first, he said his throat hurts, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat tonsillitis and fever in children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments such as rinsing and direct application can also be performed to enhance efficacy. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If the child has a persistent fever, parents should also give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatments, if a child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
