Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 4 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. It was found that her cough is quite severe, and she also has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also undergo local treatments, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, it is recommended to have a tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
