How should tonsillitis and fever in children be treated properly?

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 5 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and at the same time, it seemed like a low fever that just wouldn't go away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar medication injections can also be used. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is advisable to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. Additionally, if the child has a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is suggested. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
