Question
My son is 5 years old and has recently started to feel a sore throat, accompanied by a slight cough and fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance, and also consider regional treatments such as gargling to enhance the efficacy. If the child’s throat pain is severe, painkillers can be considered. If there is fever, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If there is no improvement, it is necessary to seek medical attention. If the condition occurs frequently, surgery can be considered after the disease is controlled. At the same time, attention should be paid to reasonable diet and rest arrangements to help the disease recover sooner.
