Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 5 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and then we noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Additionally, he has a low fever. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
