Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 4 months old. At first, she said she had pain when swallowing, and it was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when speaking. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If the child still has a fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent colds and the recurrence of tonsillitis.
