Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 9 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking and also had a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in children be treated well.Doctor's answer:
Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers should be used to alleviate the symptoms. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be chosen based on the body temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used; above 38.5°C, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
