Patient's question:
My son is 5 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. It turns out he also has a mild cough, and it seems like a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis with fever in children.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretics should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise for the child to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
