Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said his throat was sore, and we noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please advise: How should low-grade fever from tonsillitis in infants and young children be treated?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, you can give children some symptomatic antibiotics. For local treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication flushing. You can also give pain relievers based on the child's condition, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help alleviate the pain. If the child has been feverish for a long time, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. While undergoing treatment, it's also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
