Question

How long does a 4-year-old’s tonsillitis with bacterial infection and fever typically last?

Answer

Hello: Generally, most fevers are caused by infections, which can be due to bacteria, viruses, or mycoplasma, with the first two being most common. It is recommended that you have your child undergo a blood test to determine whether the infection is bacterial or viral, and then choose antibiotics or antiviral medications based on the results. Ensure your child drinks plenty of water.
