Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat. I noticed that he also had mild coughing and a low fever. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given based on the child's symptoms, or local medications can be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. Moreover, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children with recurrent episodes. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
