How should tonsillitis with low fever in children be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 1 year old. At first, she had a slight sore throat. She noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Moreover, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever in children be treated for the best effect?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which is quite effective. Local treatment methods can also be combined, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are all good options. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is important to keep the child warm to prevent further worsening of symptoms due to cold exposure.
