Question
My daughter is 2 years old. She recently has been experiencing a sore throat while speaking, difficulty swallowing, and a persistent high fever. I would like to know how to treat fever in children with tonsillitis?
Answer
Generally, for pediatric tonsillitis, it can be considered to administer antibiotics to the child, along with regional use of medication sprays or laser therapy. If the child has throat pain, painkillers can be considered. Some children may have fever as well, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If the fever does not subside, it is essential to seek medical attention. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment as soon as possible. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment as early as possible, and pay attention to relevant preventive health care work in their daily lives.
