Question
My daughter is 5 years old and has recently been complaining of a sore throat and difficulty swallowing. Now, she has a persistent high fever. How should I treat the high fever caused by pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
For pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotic treatment can be considered, and in severe cases, regional treatments such as rinsing and injections can be combined. For throat pain, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If accompanied by fever, cooling methods can be chosen based on the body temperature. Surgery is also an option for treatment, particularly suitable for children with recurrent attacks. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and adequate rest.
