Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 4 months old. At first, he felt a sore throat when talking and found that his cough seemed quite severe. Moreover, he had been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with high fever in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. Local treatment methods can also be combined, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are both effective. If a child has severe throat pain, pain-relieving medications can be given as needed. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. For cases of multiple acute severe episodes or those with complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as early as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
