Patient's question:
Female baby, only one month old. At first, she said her throat was sore. She noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be administered as needed. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is required. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. While treating the condition, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
