Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 4 years old. At first, she said it hurts to swallow things. She noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it is accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How can high fever caused by tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis. They can be selected as needed. While systemic treatment is administered, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance efficacy, including crypt irrigation and direct injection of drugs into the tonsils. For sore throat, children can be given pain relievers. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be administered. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
