Question

What are the appropriate treatment methods for a child with tonsillitis accompanied by fever?

Answer

If a child has tonsillitis, consider giving anti-inflammatory medications and regional treatments, such as washing out the tonsil crypts or using oral medications. If the child experiences severe throat pain, painkillers can be considered. For fever, oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not subside, immediate medical attention should be sought. For recurrent tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery early on. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to staying warm and avoiding catching a cold to prevent exacerbation of symptoms.
