Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old, just started saying he has a sore throat. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks. Additionally, he has a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, and can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injections, etc., which are all good options. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing drugs can be given. If the condition does not improve, medical attention is necessary. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focused on light foods, and to ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
