Patient's question:
Baby girl, only one month old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking. She noticed it, and her cough was quite severe. At the same time, it seemed like her low fever never subsided. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and high fever, how should it be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. If a child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar conditions exist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is important to provide children with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods, and to ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
