Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 6 months old, just starting. Says drinking water makes her throat hurt, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first they can take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child has a sore throat, appropriate pain-relieving medication 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. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and during treatment, a liquid diet is recommended.
