Question

Dear Parent, Our son is just over 4 months old and has recently started complaining of a sore throat. Upon observation, we noticed that his voice sounds a bit hoarse and he has been running a slight fever. How should we treat his tonsillitis and fever for optimal effectiveness?

Answer

Generally, for a child with tonsillitis and fever, various treatment methods can be adopted. Firstly, you can give your child some antibiotics, which are quite effective for symptomatic treatment. Additionally, you can use medication sprays or laser therapy to relieve throat pain. If your child has a fever, you can give him some fever-reducing medications. If the symptoms are severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Besides medication treatment, if your child frequently experiences inflammation, you may also consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure adequate nutrition, maintain a light diet, and ensure sufficient rest to avoid fatigue. Thank you for your question; we hope this information is helpful!
