Question

Dear parents, my daughter is currently 4 years old and has been experiencing a sore throat, hoarseness, and low-grade fever recently. How should we treat pediatric tonsillitis with fever?

Answer

Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be considered, and in severe cases, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt cleaning and injection drugs can be combined. If there are symptoms of sore throat, painkillers can be considered. If there is fever, oral antipyretics can be taken. If the situation persists, professional medical assistance should be sought. For patients with frequent acute attacks or complications, it is recommended to undergo tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides, while maintaining good hygiene habits and adequate rest.
