Treatment Methods for Children with Tonsillitis and Fever

Question

An eight-year-old boy is experiencing sore throat, slight cough, fever, and lack of energy, suspected of tonsillitis. How should one effectively treat this condition?

Answer

For the treatment of children with tonsillitis and fever, appropriate anti-inflammatory medication can be administered based on the symptoms, and regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar injections can be considered. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be used to relieve discomfort. For fever management, oral fever-reducing medication can be given; if symptoms do not subside, medical attention should be sought promptly. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and adequate rest.
