Question
A 6-year-old boy initially felt a sore throat, accompanied by coughing and persistent low-grade fever. How should a child’s tonsillitis with high fever be treated?
Answer
In treating this condition, oral antibiotic medication can be given to the child, supplemented with regional treatment methods such as tonsil irrigation or injection of medication. At the same time, appropriate painkillers can be administered to relieve pain. For cases accompanied by fever, oral fever reducers can be taken. If the condition cannot be alleviated, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs, surgical treatment may be considered. At the same time, pay attention to giving the child a light and easily digestible diet, enhancing nutrition, which aids in recovery.
