Question

How should one treat a child’s tonsillitis and fever?

Answer

When a child has tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medication can be considered for treatment, as well as regional therapies such as tonsil washing or injection of medication. If the child’s main symptom is throat pain, parents can give appropriate painkillers to relieve the symptoms. Additionally, if there is a fever, fever-reducing medicine can be taken; if the fever is high, it is recommended to seek medical attention early. For recurrent inflammatory conditions, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure that the child receives adequate nutrition, eat a light diet, and maintain sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
