Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 8 years old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered that his cough was quite severe. Additionally, he has had a low-grade fever for a while. Please ask: How can I effectively treat tonsillitis with low-grade fever in children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, you can first give symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child's symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injection. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During daily life, maintain a light diet, and focus on a liquid diet during the treatment period.
