Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should the tonsillitis and fever of the child be diagnosed and treated.Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be administered. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention is necessary. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet focused on light foods, and to get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
