Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 4 years old. At first, he said it hurts when he swallows things. He noticed that his cough seems to be more severe as well. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar cases occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
