Patient's question:
My little girl is 1 year old. At first, she said that even drinking water made her throat hurt. She was also found to have a slightly hoarse voice when speaking, and at the same time, she had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injection. When necessary, such as when a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
