Question
Dear Parent, my son is just over 5 months old and is complaining of throat pain, with a slightly hoarse voice when speaking. He currently has a high fever that does not subside. What treatment should be considered for the fever caused by infant tonsillitis?
Answer
Treatment for such diseases may include symptomatic antibiotic medications, as well as regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections. For persistent fever, oral antipyretics are recommended. If the condition frequently recurs, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, attention should be given to providing light meals and enhancing nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
