Question
My son is 1 year old. He has been feeling a sore throat recently, with difficulty swallowing and a persistent low fever. I would like to know how to treat a child’s tonsillitis with low fever.
Answer
Generally, children with tonsillitis can be given antibiotics, which are effective. If the condition is more severe, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil medication injections can be performed. Painkillers can be administered when the child has severe throat pain, and antipyretic medications can also be used. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. After the condition improves, it is suggested that the child engage in moderate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
