Question
A 5-year-old boy initially experienced sore throat while speaking, with a hoarse voice and a slight fever. Are there any treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis with high fever that can achieve the best results?
Answer
For treatment, the primary approach is to administer appropriate anti-inflammatory medication based on the child’s symptoms, and regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or regional drug injections can also be considered. If the child’s throat pain is severe, it is recommended to use painkillers to relieve symptoms; for children with fever, antipyretic medication can be taken. If the situation is serious, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis has a tendency to recur, and if similar conditions arise, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure that the child gets adequate rest and consumes an appropriate amount of vegetables and fruits.
