Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 7 years old, started with a slightly sore throat. He noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should the treatment for pediatric tonsillitis and high fever be carried out?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be given. If the symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can choose surgery for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
