Question
Dear parents, my son is just over 7 months old. He initially felt a sore throat and his voice was a bit hoarse. Now he has a persistent high fever. How should high fever in children with tonsillitis be treated effectively?
Answer
Generally, pediatric tonsillitis can be treated with antibiotics and can also be combined with local treatments such as rinsing or injection of medication. If the child’s main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered. During a fever, a moderate dose of antipyretic medication can be taken. If the fever persists, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Recurrent inflammation may require surgical treatment, so it is recommended to pay attention to the disease and seek medical attention as soon as possible, and pay attention to preventive health care work.
