Question
A three-month-old male infant is experiencing pain when swallowing water, severe coughing, and persistent low fever. How should one treat low fever caused by infant tonsillitis?
Answer
For pediatric tonsillitis, appropriate antibiotic medications can be selected based on the sensitivity results of bacterial culture. Regional spray medications or laser therapy can also be considered. Additionally, for severe throat pain, painkillers can be used to alleviate symptoms. If the child continues to have a fever, oral antipyretics can be administered. In cases of multiple acute attacks or complications, it is recommended to undergo tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, attention should be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring adequate rest.
