How should children with tonsillitis and low fever be treated for good results?

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 2 months old, just starting, feels sore throat when talking, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, at the same time, seems like low fever hasn't gone away, please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and low fever in children effectively.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that parents choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs for their children under the guidance of a doctor, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can be used in conjunction. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the temperature: physical cooling is suitable for temperatures below 38.5°C, while oral fever-reducing medication can be administered for temperatures above 38.5°C. If your child frequently experiences such conditions, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
