Question
My child is a 2-year-old boy. Initially, he experienced pain in his throat while speaking and difficulty swallowing, accompanied by a low-grade fever. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis and low fever?
Answer
You can administer a moderate dose of antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medication, and also consider regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or regional injections. If the child’s main symptom is throat pain, it is recommended to use a moderate amount of pain reliever to alleviate symptoms. If the child has a slight fever, consider fever reduction. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, consider surgery. After the condition improves, encourage your child to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
