Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 5 months old. At first, she said she had pain when swallowing, and it was noticed that her cough seemed to be quite severe as well. Additionally, she had been running a low fever for quite some time. Please ask: How can tonsillitis with low fever in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms, or opt for local irrigation or local spraying. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for targeted treatment, all of which have good efficacy. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be chosen based on the temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. After recovery, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost the immune system and prevent recurrence.
