Question
The baby girl is just 6 months old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed swallowing was a bit difficult, and has been running a low fever. How should one treat a child’s tonsillitis with low fever for optimal effectiveness?
Answer
In treating such diseases, you can give the child some antibiotics that are appropriate for the symptoms. You can also consider regional treatments, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections. If the child has a particularly sore throat, some painkillers can be given as needed. If the child still has a fever, it is appropriate to give some antipyretic medication. However, if the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child stays warm and to avoid exacerbating symptoms by catching a cold.
