Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 4 months old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed her voice was a bit hoarse. She has also had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and fever in children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used. Medications can be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which have good efficacy. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar cases occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
