Question
A 7-year-old boy has a sore throat, slight cough, and is feverish with low spirits. What are the treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
Pediatric tonsillitis can usually be treated with antibiotics and can also undergo regional treatments such as rinsing or injections. If there are symptoms of sore throat, painkillers can be taken to relieve discomfort. If fever is present, oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not subside, medical assistance should be sought. If inflammation recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be considered. Pay attention to a light diet, and during treatment, consume mainly liquid foods.
