Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 7 months old, just starting out. When she talks, she feels a sore throat. It was found that her cough is quite severe, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever in children be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local rinsing or topical sprays can also be used, and symptomatic drugs can be injected into the tonsils. The efficacy of these methods is quite good. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to administer pain relievers based on the situation. If the child still has a fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is crucial to keep the child warm and avoid further aggravation of symptoms by preventing them from catching a cold.
