Patient's question:
Boy, just turned one month old. At first, he said his throat was sore, and it was found to be accompanied by mild coughing, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever be treated in children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. Local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers are recommended to alleviate the symptoms. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is preferred during treatment.
