Patient's question:
My little girl, who is 3 years old, initially felt a sore throat when speaking. She was also found to have some difficulty swallowing, and she had a slight fever and lacked energy. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis and fever be treated?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers are advised to alleviate the symptoms. If the child also has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. These are all common treatment methods. However, if a child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider early surgery. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
