Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 6 months old, just started, said it hurts to swallow things, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should the treatment be effective if the child has tonsillitis with low fever?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. Local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If the child still has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
