How should children with tonsillitis and high fever be treated properly?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts, and I noticed he has a mild cough. At the same time, he has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis and high fever be treated properly?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotic medications. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be administered orally. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
