Question
A four-month-old male infant initially showed symptoms of throat pain, with a hoarse voice when speaking, followed by persistent high fever. How should low fever caused by pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
For the treatment of low fever caused by pediatric tonsillitis, appropriate anti-inflammatory medication should be administered based on the child’s symptoms, and regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar injections can be considered. If the child has severe throat pain, analgesics can be given as needed. For fever symptoms, antipyretics can be used as appropriate, but if the fever persists, immediate medical attention should be sought. If the child frequently experiences such situations, after controlling the condition, surgery can be considered to prevent recurrent episodes. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage the child in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
