Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 9 months old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed things. It was discovered that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Additionally, she has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should a child with tonsillitis and fever be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as irrigation or direct application of medication, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. 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. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help them recover as soon as possible.
