Question
A four-year-old boy is experiencing swallowing pain, severe coughing, and low-grade fever symptoms, diagnosed as tonsillitis. How should one handle such a high fever situation?
Answer
For the treatment of children with tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medication can be administered, and regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication can be considered. For throat pain, appropriate painkillers can be given. When fever persists, use fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention. If the child frequently experiences such situations, after controlling the condition, surgery can be considered to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure that the child gets adequate rest and consumes vegetables and fruits.
