Question
Our child was premature and has always been weak, especially susceptible to catching colds at kindergarten, leading to constant tonsillitis. We are worried about the impact on the child’s health. What is the situation of tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
Based on the situation you described, the initial consideration is that it is caused by an inflammatory infection. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, eat light and easily digestible foods, and take amoxicillin to resolve the issue. It is not advisable to take penicillin. When patients face the disturbance of tonsillitis, we should promptly implement the principle of symptomatic treatment and not avoid seeking medical attention. If tonsillitis does not improve after long-term treatment, then it is necessary to timely adjust the treatment plan.
