Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 9 years old and has recently started feeling a sore throat and difficulty swallowing, along with a slight fever and discomfort. How should we treat high fever in children with tonsillitis?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can use anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance or undergo regional treatments, such as deep tonsil cleaning or injection therapy. If the child experiences severe throat pain, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate symptoms. For low-grade fevers, physical cooling methods can be employed. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. If the child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment as soon as possible. Parents should pay attention to this disease, take their child to the doctor for treatment in a timely manner, and also pay attention to relevant preventive and health care work in daily life.
