Question
How should I treat a child who shakes when they have a fever?
Answer
It may be caused by tonsillitis, and the main treatment is antibiotic therapy, ensuring the medication is taken in sufficient dosage and for the full course. You can also assist with some traditional Chinese medicine to clear heat and detoxify, which can help alleviate symptoms. It’s important to avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold stimulating foods. If the condition does not improve, consider hospital treatment with tonsillectomy.
