Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, he said it hurts when he swallows things, and we noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Additionally, he has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should we treat tonsillitis with high fever 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. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medication can be taken orally. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children who experience recurrent episodes. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
