Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just started, feels a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough, and now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever be treated in children?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. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is advisable to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm to prevent further worsening of the symptoms due to cold exposure.
