Question
Dear Baby, currently 8 years old, initially, there was a slight sore throat, accompanied by mild coughing, and at the same time, a slight fever. How should one treat a child with tonsillitis and fever?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, the first step is to use symptomatic antibiotic medications, and regional irrigation or spraying can also be performed. Symptomatic medications can also be injected into the tonsils, which are all effective. If the child has severe throat pain, it is recommended to consider giving painkillers. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can use fever-reducing medications or take them to the hospital immediately. If there is a condition of recurrent inflammation, consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to pay attention to light and easy-to-digest food, mainly in liquid form.
