Question

Dear Parent, My daughter is currently 3 years old. She has just started to complain of a sore throat while speaking, and it seems her coughing has become more severe. Additionally, she now has a persistent high fever. How should I treat her tonsillitis with low fever for the best results?

Answer

To effectively treat tonsillitis, it is advisable to choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be considered. For children with pronounced sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be administered. Apply fever reducers promptly for persistent fever, and for temperatures below 38.5°C, physical cooling can be employed. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, early surgery is recommended. Parents should also ensure proper warmth to prevent catching a cold and triggering a recurrence of tonsillitis.
