Patient's question:
Baby girl, only one month old. At first, she felt a sore throat when talking, noticed it, and had severe coughing. At the same time, it seems like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should I treat her tonsillitis and high fever for better results?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. If a child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar conditions exist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet primarily consisting of light foods. Rest should also be emphasized to avoid fatigue.
