Question
My daughter is 9 years old and has recently been experiencing throat pain and a hoarse voice, accompanied by a persistent high fever. How should I treat her tonsillitis with fever for the best effect?
Answer
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are mainly used, and the choice of sensitive drugs can be made based on bacterial culture, with good effects. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatment can also be performed, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. Appropriate painkillers can be administered to relieve severe throat pain, and antipyretics can be taken in moderation if there is a fever. If the fever persists, medical attention must be sought immediately. If a child frequently experiences inflammation, surgery can be considered after treatment to avoid recurrence. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
