Patient's question:
My boy, who is 4 years old, initially said that he felt pain when swallowing things. I noticed that his cough also seemed to be more severe. At the same time, he had been running a low fever for a while. I would like to ask: How should I treat tonsillitis with high fever in children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child has severe throat pain, pain-relieving medication can be administered as needed. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children who experience recurrent episodes. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this condition seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as early as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
