Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned one month old, just started, said his throat hurts, found that cough seems to be more serious, and now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in children be diagnosed and treated.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If there is a fever, the method of fever reduction should be chosen based on the temperature. For temperatures below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature is above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics can be administered. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
