How to Treat High Fever in Children with tonsillitis

A 11-year-old boy, in elementary school, initially felt a sore throat when speaking, discovered a more severe cough, and now has a persistent high fever. Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose according to symptoms. While taking medication, some regional treatments can be performed, such as rinsing and direct medication, to consolidate the efficacy. If the sore throat is severe, some painkillers may be appropriately administered. For fever, choose a cooling method based on body temperature; physical cooling can be used below 38.5 degrees Celsius, while oral antipyretics can be taken for temperatures above 38.5 degrees Celsius.
