Treatment for low-grade fever in infants and young children with tonsillitis: How to get good results

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 5 months old, just starting, feels sore throat when talking, notices, coughs more severely, and has a slight fever with low energy. Please ask: How can pharyngitis with low fever in infants and young children be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers may be given based on the situation. If the child still has a fever, antipyretics should be administered as needed. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, emergency medical attention is required. For multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
