Question
Dear parents, my son is just over 6 months old and has been complaining of throat pain, accompanied by a slight cough and low-grade fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis with high fever be treated?
Answer
For such conditions, consider administering oral symptomatic antibiotics to the child. In severe cases, regional treatments such as tonsil washing or drug injections can be performed. If there is throat pain, painkillers can be used. If the fever persists, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. For recurrent inflammation, it is recommended to undergo surgery early and ensure the child gets adequate rest and increases their intake of vegetables and fruits.
