Patient's question:
My little girl is 1 year old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat, and I noticed that her cough seemed to be getting worse as well. She has also had a low-grade fever. Could you please tell me how to treat tonsillitis with fever in infants and toddlers?Doctor's answer:
When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. Local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child primarily presents with sore throat symptoms, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be administered. If your child frequently experiences such conditions, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their child to seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
