Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and at the same time, he had a low fever. Please ask: How should high fever caused by tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first take some symptomatic antibiotics. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Moreover, if there is a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can consult a doctor to consider surgical treatment. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and daily routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
