Question
My son is 4 years old. Initially, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and I noticed he had a slight cough. Now, he has a persistent high fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis with low fever for the best results?
Answer
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s orders and give the child symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. If the child’s condition is severe, regional treatments can be combined, including tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injections. If the child experiences severe throat pain, painkillers may be recommended to alleviate symptoms. If the child still has a fever, it is appropriate to consider giving some fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis has the characteristic of recurrent attacks. If similar conditions exist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Finally, I hope that parents can pay attention to this disease and take their children to see a doctor for treatment as soon as possible. In addition, it is important to do a good job of prevention and health care in daily life.
