Question
Dear parents, my 9-year-old daughter has started experiencing throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and persistent fever. What are the effective treatment methods for children’s tonsillitis with fever?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, parents can administer anti-inflammatory medications, and regional treatments such as tonsil washing or injection medications can be considered if necessary. If the throat pain is severe, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate symptoms; if the child continues to have a fever, consider using fever-reducing drugs, but if the fever persists, seek medical attention promptly. These are among the commonly used treatment methods for tonsillitis. Additionally, surgery can also be an option, particularly suitable for children with recurrent attacks. During the treatment period, keep the child warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
