Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 7 months old. At first, he said it hurt to swallow things. It was discovered that his cough was quite severe, and it seemed like his low fever never went away. Please ask: How should one treat tonsillitis and high fever in a child?Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medications. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Moreover, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Pay attention to a light diet, and during treatment, a liquid diet should be primarily consumed.
