Question
A boy, 8 years old, has recently been experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, hoarseness, and fever. How should infants with tonsillitis and high fever be effectively treated?
Answer
When treating this kind of illness, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications. In addition to systemic treatment, you can also choose regional treatment to enhance the efficacy, which includes methods such as tonsil pus washing and direct injection of medication into the tonsil. If the child primarily has a sore throat, parents can consider giving painkillers to relieve the symptoms. When the child continues to have a fever, parents can give antipyretic medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to medication treatment, if the child has recurrent inflammation, parents can discuss surgical treatment with the doctor. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in appropriate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
