How should children with tonsillitis and high fever be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated well.

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, or opt for local rinsing or topical sprays. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for targeted treatment, all of which have good efficacy. When necessary, such as when a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can also be given. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medications can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention is necessary. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
