Patient's question:
Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. At first, he said his throat hurt. It was found that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How can high fever from tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medications. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible.In addition to these medication-based treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
