Question
My daughter is currently 4 years old and is experiencing throat pain, severe coughing, and persistent fever. How should I treat her for pediatric tonsillitis and fever symptoms?
Answer
In current clinical treatment, antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are one of the main methods for treating pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose appropriate medications based on the symptoms, and it is also recommended to consider laser therapy or regional rinsing for regional treatment. Additionally, some painkillers can be administered according to the child’s condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, which can help alleviate the pain. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can give fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital for medical attention. In addition to medication treatment, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment can also be considered. During the treatment period, it is especially important to keep the child warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
