Patient's question:
Boy, 9 years old, has started elementary school. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, and it was found that he also had mild cough. Additionally, it seems like he has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their children some anti-inflammatory medications. They can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all good options. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child still has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
