Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 months old. At first, she said that even drinking water made her throat hurt. She found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Moreover, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can tonsillitis with fever be treated effectively in children?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotic medications. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be administered. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent colds and the subsequent recurrence of tonsillitis.
