Question
My son is 1 year old. Initially, he complained of a sore throat, and I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke, and he’s had a slight fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis and low fever effectively?
Answer
It is appropriate to administer some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs. For regional treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or drug irrigation. If the child has severe throat pain, painkillers can also be considered. For low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. These methods are currently commonly used in the treatment of tonsillitis. In addition, surgical treatment is also an option for children with recurrent episodes. At the same time, attention should be paid to arranging a reasonable diet and sleep habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
