Question

My son is 7 years old. Initially, he felt pain when drinking water, and it seemed difficult to swallow. He also had a low-grade fever. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis and low fever to achieve good results?

Answer

If a child has tonsillitis, it is recommended to provide anti-inflammatory medication and consider regional treatments such as laser therapy or medication irrigation. If the symptoms are mainly throat pain, painkillers can be considered. If the child has a fever, it should be treated appropriately; if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgery can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and take their child to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. In addition, it is important to pay attention to related prevention and health care during daily life.
