Patient's question:
Boy, 12 years old, in elementary school. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking. He noticed that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a low fever. Please ask: How should high fever in infants and young children with tonsillitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first, they can use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Local rinsing or local spraying can also be applied. Symptomatic medication can also be injected into the tonsils, and the efficacy is quite good. If the child's sore throat is severe, it is recommended to give some pain relievers based on the situation. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If your child frequently experiences this condition, after the illness is under control, surgical treatment can be considered to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
