Question
My daughter is 2 years old. Initially, she had a hoarse voice and felt throat pain. Now she has a persistent high fever. What are the treatment methods for a child with tonsillitis and high fever?
Answer
Currently, the main treatment for children with tonsillitis is antibiotics, which can be selected based on bacterial culture to find sensitive medications. Regional rinsing or spray medications can also be used, and the tonsils can be injected with symptomatic drugs for good effect. Painkillers can be administered, especially helpful in alleviating severe throat pain. If the child continues to have a persistent high fever, oral fever-reducing medication can be given. Surgery is also a viable option for children with recurrent attacks, and attention should be paid to light and healthy eating habits during treatment, with a focus on liquid foods.
