Treatment for Infants with High Fever Due to tonsillitis

Question

Dear reader, our little girl is currently 2 years old. She initially presented with throat pain, mild cough, and persistent fever. How should we treat the infant’s tonsillitis with high fever?

Answer

For children with tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medications can be administered based on symptoms, and regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or regional injections may be considered. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be chosen to alleviate symptoms. If the fever is mild, cooling measures can be considered; if it exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the medication is ineffective and there are recurrent episodes, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment, while also ensuring proper dietary hygiene and sufficient rest.
