Patient's question:
Female baby, only one month old. At first, she said her throat was sore. She noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like a low fever that never subsided. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is required. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. While treating, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
