Question
How should a child with a sore throat and low fever be treated?
Answer
For such conditions, consider administering symptomatic antibiotic medications to the child. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatments can be considered, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or tonsil intralesional injections. If the throat pain is severe, appropriate painkillers can be used. For persistent fever, apply antipyretic drugs promptly. If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling measures can be taken. Tonsillitis has the characteristic of recurrent attacks. If there are similar situations, surgical treatment can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During the treatment period, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring adequate rest.
