Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old. At first, his throat felt a bit sore. He noticed that his cough seemed to be quite severe as well, and he had been running a low fever. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used, and symptomatic medications can be injected into the tonsils, all of which have good efficacy. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further exposure to cold to worsen the symptoms.
