Patient's question:
My little girl, she's 4 years old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat, and I noticed she seemed to have difficulty swallowing. She also had a low fever. Could you please tell me how to treat infant tonsillitis with high fever?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. For local treatment, it is recommended to opt for laser therapy or medication rinsing. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is advisable to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be applied. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be recommended. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent catching a cold and triggering a recurrence of tonsillitis.
