Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just started, said swallowing is painful, noticed, cough is quite severe, at the same time, has had a slight fever for a while, please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever in children be diagnosed and treated.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotic medications. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which have proven effective. For cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
