Question

My child’s tonsils keep recurring, causing high fever each time. What medications should be used for treatment?

Answer

  1. The main symptoms of acute pharyngitis and tonsillitis in children are fever and sore throat. The primary treatment method is the use of anti-inflammatory medications, which typically require a duration of about one week. It is advisable not to use the medication for a short period of time.
  2. If the child has systemic symptoms such as fever, in addition to using anti-inflammatory medications, appropriate symptomatic antipyretic and blood circulation medications can also be used. Furthermore, during the treatment period, the child’s diet and psychological state are also very important. The child should maintain a cheerful mood and pay attention to a reasonable diet to avoid disrupting the recovery process of tonsillitis.
