Patient's question:
Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered it was accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like the low fever never went away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered. While taking medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is advised. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is preferred.
