Question
Baby girl, just 8 months old, started complaining of pain when swallowing. Noticed that her coughing seemed more severe, and she also had a slight fever and lost her energy. How should one treat high fever in children with tonsillitis?
Answer
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions to administer some anti-inflammatory medication to the child. Regional rinsing or spraying can also be considered, as well as injecting symptomatic medication into the tonsils. These treatments are quite effective. If the child has a sore throat, painkillers can be administered as needed. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling can be applied.
