Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, and it was discovered that he also had mild coughing and low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in children be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. Additionally, if fever is present, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. However, for high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, early surgery is recommended. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
