How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be treated?

Patient's question:

My little girl, she's 5 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should I treat her tonsillitis with high fever?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. Persistent fever should be treated with antipyretics, while physical cooling methods can be used for temperatures below 38.5 degrees Celsius. In addition to these medication and treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
