Question
A boy, already 1 year old, has recently been experiencing hoarseness and a low-grade fever. What are effective treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis with high fever?
Answer
The treatment for pediatric tonsillitis primarily includes antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Consider regional treatment options such as tonsil washing or injection medications. If there is a sore throat, painkillers can be considered; if there is a fever, oral antipyretics can be taken. If symptoms do not subside, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication treatment is ineffective and symptoms recur frequently, surgery may need to be considered. During treatment, it is important to ensure adequate nutrition, eat a light diet, and allow the child to rest sufficiently, avoiding overexertion.
