Question

How should one treat a child’s sore throat and high fever to achieve better results?

Answer

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are among the main methods and medications used in the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose appropriate medications based on the symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatments such as tonsil washing or intratonsillar medication injection can also be considered. If the child has a sore throat, it is recommended to use some painkillers to alleviate the symptoms. If the child continues to have a fever, a moderate dose of antipyretic medication can be taken, but if the fever persists, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication treatment is ineffective and recurrent, surgery may be considered. At the same time, attention should be paid to the child’s reasonable diet and lifestyle habits to promote recovery from the disease.
