Patient's question:
Female baby, only 6 months old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and then discovered that her cough was quite severe. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can one effectively treat tonsillitis with low-grade fever in children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms, or local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can be used. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers may be recommended depending on the situation. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
