Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 3 months old. At first, it was said that even drinking water made his throat hurt. Noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when talking. At the same time, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should the tonsillitis and high fever in the child be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which is quite effective. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used, and symptomatic drugs can be injected into the tonsils, all of which have good efficacy. If a child's sore throat is particularly severe, 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 symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider surgery at an early stage. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
