Question
Dear parents, our 7-year-old daughter has recently been experiencing a sore throat and severe cough, accompanied by a persistent low-grade fever. How should we treat low fever in children with tonsillitis?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance and consider regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection medications. If the throat pain is severe, you can give a small amount of pain reliever; if the fever persists, parents can use fever-reducing medicine or take their child to the doctor. For recurrent episodes, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
