Patient's question:
My little girl, she's one year old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat. I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and it seemed like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should one treat tonsillitis with low fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which have good efficacy. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child still has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
