Question
Dear reader, our daughter is currently 3 years old. She initially experienced a sore throat and difficulty swallowing, accompanied by a persistent low-grade fever. How should we diagnose and treat the tonsillitis and high fever in children?
Answer
For treatment, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer anti-inflammatory medication to the child. Regional applications of medication, such as tonsil lavage and regional injections, can also be considered. If the child experiences severe throat pain, painkillers may be administered as needed. If the fever persists, oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. After the condition improves, it is recommended to allow the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence of symptoms.
