Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing, and also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever be diagnosed and treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered, and local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, and laser therapy can also be performed. If the child's sore throat is severe, pain relievers may be given based on the situation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical intervention may be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
