How should a child with tonsillitis and high fever be treated?

Patient's question:

Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he had a slight sore throat, noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, and also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated well.

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections can be combined. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers are recommended to alleviate the symptoms. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar cases occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
