Question
A 9-year-old boy has a slight sore throat and a mild cough, and now he has a high fever: How should low fever in pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication are the main methods for treating pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose medications based on symptoms and can also combine local treatment methods, such as tonsil irrigation and drug injections. For children with throat pain, painkillers can be used; if there is a fever, cooling methods should be chosen based on body temperature. Surgery is also a method of treating tonsillitis, suitable for children with recurrent attacks, and it is important to ensure the child gets plenty of rest and eats plenty of fruits and vegetables.
