How to treat a child's tonsillitis with high fever effectively

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water, and it was discovered that his cough was quite severe, and he had a slight fever all the time. Please ask: How can I effectively treat tonsillitis with high fever in children?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Local irrigation or local spraying can also be used, and symptomatic drugs can be injected into the tonsils. The efficacy of these treatments is quite good. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. If the child still has a slight fever, it should be treated accordingly with fever-reducing measures. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
