Question
My daughter is currently 1 year old. Initially, she felt pain when drinking water and her voice was a bit hoarse during speech. She also has a slight fever and seems listless. How should I treat fever in infants with tonsillitis?
Answer
In treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications. While taking the medication, you can also perform some regional treatments, such as rinsing or direct application of medication, to consolidate the efficacy. In cases of throat pain, you can also give the child some pain-relieving drugs. Some children may also have a fever, in which case you can give them oral fever-reducing drugs. If the condition cannot be alleviated, it is essential to seek medical attention. If your child frequently experiences this situation, consider surgical treatment after the condition is controlled to avoid recurrence. During treatment, pay attention to giving your child adequate nutritional supplementation, maintain a light diet, and ensure adequate rest to avoid fatigue.
