Question
A 7-month-old male baby is showing symptoms of sore throat, severe cough, and fever. How should one treat the high fever caused by pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
For the treatment of such diseases, oral symptomatic antibiotics can be considered. In terms of regional treatment, options include laser or pharmacological irrigation. If there is severe throat pain, analgesics can be used with caution. Some children may also experience fever, and oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not subside, it is imperative to seek medical attention. In addition to medication, if tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is necessary to maintain health and ensure adequate rest.
