Patient's question:
Boy, 7 years old, has started primary school. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water. He noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and he also had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with fever be treated.Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. When necessary, such as when a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can also be given. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be selected based on the temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for your child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
