Girl baby, currently 8 years old, just started, a little sore throat, noticed, cough seems to be more serious, at the same time, has had a slight fever for a long time. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and fever in children.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotics. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture results, which have shown good efficacy. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate analgesics should be administered. If the child still has a slight fever, antipyretics should be used cautiously. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, emergency medical attention is necessary. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet focused on light and easily digestible foods. Additionally, sufficient rest should be maintained to avoid fatigue.
