Patient's question:
Female baby, only 3 months old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat. Then, she started coughing more severely, and she has had a low-grade fever. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat pediatric tonsillitis with low-grade fever.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications, or local rinsing or topical sprays can be applied. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which are quite effective. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medications can be given. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
