How to treat tonsillitis and low fever in children

Patient's question:

My little girl is 7 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and noticed that her cough was quite severe, accompanied by a low fever. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis with low fever in children.

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis first involves parents giving their child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can also be used. If the child primarily exhibits symptoms of sore throat, parents may consider administering pain relievers to alleviate discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be given. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
