Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 7 months old. At first, he felt a sore throat when talking, and then discovered that his cough was quite severe, and it seemed like his low fever never subsided. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis and high fever in my child?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can also be used. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.In addition to the above medication and treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet focused on light foods. Rest is also crucial, and fatigue should be avoided.
