Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 2 months old, just starting, feels sore throat when talking, noticed it, coughs very severely, and at the same time, now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in infants and young children be treated well.

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medication can be taken orally. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
