Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 3 months old, just starting, saying it hurts to swallow things, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever be treated effectively for the child.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given, local rinsing or topical sprays can also be used, and symptomatic drugs can be injected into the tonsils. The efficacy of these methods is quite good. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the body temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used, and oral fever-reducing drugs can be taken if the temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. In addition, surgery is also a feasible method, suitable for children who have recurrent episodes. After the condition improves, it is recommended to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
