Question
How should one treat a child with tonsillitis and a high fever?
Answer
The primary methods and medications for treating pediatric tonsillitis in clinical settings are antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Parents can choose the appropriate treatment method based on the symptoms, which may include systemic medication as well as regional treatments, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injections. If the child experiences throat pain, painkillers can be administered in moderation. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can use fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital. In addition to medication, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can also opt for surgical treatment under a doctor’s guidance. It is hoped that parents will take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and pay attention to relevant preventive and health care work in their daily lives.
