For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child still has a slight fever, appropriate fever reduction measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present.
