Question
Baby girl, 5 months old, with sore throat, cough, fever, and lack of energy. How to handle the issue of pediatric tonsillitis with low fever?
Answer
When treating pediatric tonsillitis, it’s recommended to choose a sensitive antibiotic based on bacterial culture. Additionally, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or drug injection can be considered. For children with severe throat pain, painkillers can be used. If there are fever symptoms, antipyretic medication can be taken. In case of severe conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is suggested to consider surgery early on. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in moderate physical activity and strengthen immunity to prevent recurrence.
