Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 5 months old. At first, she said her throat was sore. It was found that her cough seemed to be quite severe as well. At the same time, her high fever hasn't subsided yet. Please ask: How can tonsillitis with fever in children be treated effectively.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotics. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child has severe throat pain, analgesics may be administered as needed. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
