Question

A nine-year-old boy is experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, slight cough, fever, and lack of energy. Diagnosed with tonsillitis, how should this condition and the resulting high fever be effectively treated?

Answer

For pediatric tonsillitis and the resulting high fever, it is recommended to use appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance to alleviate inflammation. Regional treatments can consider laser therapy or medication irrigation. If the pain is severe, painkillers can be administered. For fever, antipyretics can be taken, and for high fever, immediate medical attention is required. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes enough vegetables and fruits.
