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

Patient's question:

Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. At first, he had a slight sore throat, and then discovered that his cough was quite severe. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Question: How can we effectively treat tonsillitis and fever in children?

Doctor's answer:

For treatment, you can first administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on your child's symptoms. Additionally, you can apply topical medication sprays or undergo laser therapy. In cases of sore throat, you can also give your child pain relievers. If your child has a low-grade fever, you can use physical cooling methods. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and focus on a liquid diet during the treatment period.
