Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 6 months old. At first, she felt a sore throat when talking and found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Also, she has had a low-grade fever all along. Please ask: How should I treat her tonsillitis and low-grade fever for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotics, or local treatments can be applied, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child still has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is crucial to ensure the child stays warm to prevent further worsening of symptoms due to cold exposure.
