Question
My son is just over 4 months old and has a sore throat, accompanied by coughing and low fever. How should a child’s tonsillitis with low fever be treated?
Answer
For a better treatment of tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance for symptomatic treatment. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or tonsil intramuscular injections can also be performed. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If the child continues to have a fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be given. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease, take their child to the doctor for treatment in time, and also pay attention to prevention and health care in their daily lives.
