Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he said that swallowing was painful, and it was found that his cough seemed to be more severe as well. Additionally, he had low-grade fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotics. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture results, which have shown good efficacy. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. If a child experiences severe sore throat, pain relievers can be administered based on the situation. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to these pharmacological treatment methods, if a child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child stays warm to prevent further exacerbation of symptoms due to cold exposure.
