Patient's question:
Baby boy, just turned 4 months old, just started, says his throat hurts even when drinking water, found that his cough seems to be quite severe, and now he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis with low fever for my child to get the best results.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotic medications. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and intratonsillar medication may be combined. For severe sore throat, appropriate analgesics should be administered. If the child still has a fever, antipyretics should be used cautiously. If the temperature exceeds 40°C, immediate medical attention is necessary. These are the commonly used treatment methods. However, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider early surgery. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
