Patient's question:
My little girl, she's 4 years old. At first, she said her throat hurt, and then we noticed she seemed to have difficulty swallowing. Also, she had a low fever and wasn't very energetic. Could you please tell me how to treat tonsillitis with a low fever in children?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. 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. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication-based treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can also consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be primarily followed during the treatment period.
