Question

My child is a 4-year-old boy. Recently, he has a sore throat, accompanied by a slight cough and low-grade fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis with high fever for the best effect?

Answer

You can give him a moderate dose of antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medication, and consider local drug sprays or laser therapy. If the child’s main symptom is throat pain, consider giving painkillers to relieve it. If the child has a mild fever, consider fever-reducing measures; if the temperature rises above 40 degrees Celsius, please seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgery may be considered. At the same time, please pay attention to giving your child a light diet, enhancing nutritional supplementation, and helping him recover quickly.
