Question
My daughter is only 7 months old and has a sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and persistent low-grade fever. What treatment methods are available for pediatric tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
When treating this condition, you can give the child symptomatic antibiotic medications and combine them with local treatment methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medications. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered; if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. It is recommended to seek medical attention early during a high fever. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be considered. Meanwhile, pay attention to a light diet and nutritional supplementation to help the child recover quickly.
