How to treat high fever from tonsillitis in children for the best effect

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 8 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and it was found that his cough seemed to be quite severe as well. He also had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: How should high fever from tonsillitis in children be treated for the best effect?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can be combined, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injections, etc. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to give some analgesics based on the situation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be given. If it cannot be relieved, medical attention must be sought. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Pay attention to a light diet, and a liquid diet should be the main focus during treatment.
