Question
A 7-year-old boy, in elementary school, complains of sore throat and severe cough. He now has a persistent high fever. How should we treat the child’s tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
Firstly, provide symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child’s symptoms, and conduct regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation, intramuscular medication injections, and laser therapy. For throat pain, painkillers can be used, and antipyretics for fever symptoms. In severe cases, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Surgery is also an option for children who have recurrent episodes. Pay attention to the disease, seek medical treatment early, and be mindful of preventive health measures.
