Question
My daughter is 2 years old and has recently been suffering from severe sore throat, coughing, and low-grade fever. How should I treat her pediatric tonsillitis to achieve the best fever relief?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be appropriately used for treatment, including systemic medications and regional treatment methods such as tonsil washing or intratonsillar drug injection. For severe throat pain, painkillers can be used, and antipyretics can be taken if fever is present. It is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible in case of high fever, and consider tonsillectomy if there are multiple acute attacks or complications. Parents are advised to take treatment and prevention seriously and maintain good hygiene habits.
