Question
A 7-year-old boy, in elementary school, recently complained of throat pain, slight coughing, and also had a lack of energy due to fever. How should one treat a child’s tonsillitis with high fever effectively?
Answer
Consider using antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications, regional use of medication sprays or laser therapy. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered. If the child still has a fever, a small amount of antipyretic medication can be used, but if the fever persists, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If similar symptoms occur frequently, surgery may be considered after treatment to prevent recurrence. During the treatment period, keep the child warm and avoid letting them catch a cold to worsen the symptoms.
