How should children with tonsillitis and fever be treated appropriately?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 9 years old. At first, she said she had pain when swallowing. It was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, and it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should the treatment be for tonsillitis and fever in children?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If the child still has a fever, appropriate antipyretic medication can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if a child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the hospital for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
