Question

My daughter is 9 years old and has a sore throat, severe cough, and is running a low fever. How should I treat her pediatric tonsillitis with low fever?

Answer

Consider administering antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for regional treatment, such as tonsil crypt cleaning, internal medication injection, or laser treatment. Painkillers can be used to relieve throat pain, and fever reduction may be necessary if needed. If the body temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, seek medical attention promptly. If the condition recurs frequently, consider surgery after treatment to prevent recurrence. Pay attention to the child’s rest and ensure a diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
