Patient's question:
My little girl is 5 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and she also has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis with high fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used. Medications can be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which have good efficacy. Pain relievers can also be given to children, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be administered. In severe cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents may consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional support to aid in early recovery.
