Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 7 years old. At first, he felt sore throat even when drinking water, noticed that his cough seemed to be more severe, and now he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis with low fever in infants and young children.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If accompanied by low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be applied. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if a child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
