Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He also had severe coughing and low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, and local treatments can also be performed, including tonsil crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also give fever-reducing medications or immediately take the child to the hospital. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent them from catching a cold and triggering recurrent tonsillitis.
