Question

A 5-year-old boy is experiencing pain while swallowing and severe coughing, accompanied by a fever. How should tonsillitis with high fever in children be diagnosed and treated?

Answer

Firstly, appropriate anti-inflammatory medications can be administered based on the child’s symptoms, along with regional drug sprays or laser therapy. If the child’s throat pain is significant, painkillers can be considered. If the child continues to have a fever, fever-reducing medication can be used, or the child should be brought to the hospital immediately. In addition to these conventional treatment methods, for children with recurrent attacks, surgical treatment can also be considered. Parents should pay attention to this disease, seek medical attention promptly, and take corresponding preventive and health care measures.
