Patient's question:
My son is 5 years old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when he drank water. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and it seemed like his low fever never went away. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with low fever be treated.Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injection. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the symptoms do not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children who experience recurrent episodes. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
