Question
My daughter is 6 years old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. She also has a slight fever and lacks energy. How should low fever in children with tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Antibiotic medications are one of the common methods used to treat low fever in children with tonsillitis. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be used. In cases of throat pain, painkillers can be administered to the child. If the child has a fever, a small amount of antipyretic medication can be taken, but if the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, consider surgical treatment as early as possible. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure the child has enough rest time.
