Question
The baby girl is just 3 months old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when talking, and noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse. Additionally, she had a low-grade fever. Please ask: How should high fever in children with tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Generally speaking, if it is tonsillitis in children, it is effective to give the child some symptomatic antibiotics. Additionally, regional medication sprays or laser therapy can be provided, and if the sore throat is severe, some painkillers can be appropriately administered. If there is also a fever, some antipyretic drugs can be taken. It is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible for high fever. These are all relatively common treatment methods. However, if the child’s tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is suggested to consider surgery as soon as possible. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
