How to treat tonsillitis with high fever in children

Patient's question:

Girl baby, only 6 months old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat. She noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke, and she had been a little feverish all along. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated.

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture, or local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, 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.
