Question
My child is a 8-year-old boy. Initially, he said he had a sore throat, and I noticed that he seemed to have difficulty swallowing and had a low fever. How should I treat my child who has tonsillitis and low fever?
Answer
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered, along with regional treatments such as tonsil pus washing or injection medication. If the child has severe throat pain, it is recommended to give some painkillers according to the situation. If the child has fever symptoms, he can take some fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought promptly. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently has inflammatory episodes, parents can consult with a doctor and consider surgery for treatment. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging reasonable diet and rest habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
