Question

Dear parents, my daughter is 3 years old and has recently started experiencing a sore throat while speaking, accompanied by a slight cough and low-grade fever. How should I treat her tonsillitis with low fever?

Answer

When treating a child’s tonsillitis, parents can administer anti-inflammatory medication, use local drug sprays or laser therapy, and if there is throat pain, painkillers can be used. For fever, timely administration of antipyretics is recommended, and if the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be employed. If the medication is ineffective, consider surgical treatment. At the same time, pay attention to the child’s nutritional supplementation, a light diet, and adequate rest to avoid fatigue.
