Question
A two-month-old male infant is suffering from tonsillitis accompanied by high fever. The symptoms include sore throat, hoarseness, and persistent low-grade fever. How should one effectively treat this condition?
Answer
For the treatment of tonsillitis and high fever, it is recommended to choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. If the condition is severe, consider complementary regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication. In cases of severe pain, painkillers can be administered to relieve discomfort. If there is fever, antipyretic drugs can be given as needed, but if the fever persists, immediate medical attention should be sought. Additionally, for children with recurrent episodes, surgery may also be an option. During the treatment period, it is advisable to maintain a light diet with a focus on liquid foods.
