Question
My child is a 3-year-old boy, and he has recently been experiencing throat pain, severe coughing, and persistent low-grade fever. How should I treat low-grade fever in infants and young children with tonsillitis?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance, consider regional laser therapy or medication rinses. If throat pain is severe, painkillers can be used to alleviate symptoms; if there is a fever, antipyretics can be taken. In case of severe conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective, surgery may be considered. Additionally, parents should keep their child warm to avoid colds that may trigger a recurrence of tonsillitis.
