Patient's question:
My child just started kindergarten and got infected with a cold, which led to tonsillitis. It's been half a month and it hasn't improved much. Now my child isn't eating well, and I can see them getting thinner every day. I really feel heartbroken. Can you please tell me if intravenous fluids are effective for tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you described, the baby's fever is a symptom caused by tonsillitis. Although the child's tonsils are not painful now, it is still considered that there are bacteria in the body. It is recommended that you should focus on using anti-inflammatory drugs to treat the child and use fever-reducing drugs to reduce fever together. Patients with tonsillitis can use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life while understanding symptomatic treatment. It is essential to avoid being overly hungry or full in daily diet and never overeat.
