Question
Baby girl, 4 months old, has symptoms of throat pain, hoarseness, and persistent low-grade fever. How should one treat tonsillitis and fever in children for the best results?
Answer
Generally, if a child has tonsillitis, antibiotic treatment can be considered, along with regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or internal drug injection. If the child has severe throat pain, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate symptoms; if there is persistent fever, consider using antipyretics, but if the fever does not subside, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. If this condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment can be considered after treatment to prevent recurrence, while also paying attention to arranging reasonable dietary and lifestyle habits, which will help the child recover sooner.
