Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 months old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and found that his cough seemed to be quite severe as well, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should high fever from tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. 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 medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If your child frequently experiences this condition, after the illness is under control, surgical treatment can be considered to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring the child to the doctor for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
