Question
Dear Parent, my son is just over 3 months old. Initially, he felt a sore throat when talking, and I noticed that his coughing seemed more severe, and he also had a bit of a fever and seemed less energetic. How should a child with tonsillitis and low fever be treated?
Answer
You can appropriately administer some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs. Additionally, you can provide regional drug sprays or undergo laser therapy. If the child has a sore throat, you can also give him some painkillers. If the child still has a fever, then you should consider antipyretic treatment accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In cases of repeated acute severe episodes or complications, it is recommended to perform tonsillectomy after the acute inflammation subsides for two weeks. Pay attention to a light diet during treatment and mainly consume liquid foods.
