Why does pediatric tonsillitis cause fever? How should it be treated?
When a child experiences a sore throat, hoarseness, and persistent low-grade fever, how should parents diagnose and treat the fever caused by pediatric tonsillitis?
Generally speaking, the treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can include antibiotic therapy, regional treatment, and fever-reducing measures. If symptoms are severe or the fever persists, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic antibiotic medication can be used. Regional treatment is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication irrigation, and painkillers or fever-reducing drugs can be administered to the child. If the child continues to have a fever, it is advisable for parents to take the child to the hospital. Surgery is also a viable option for children with recurrent attacks. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child gets plenty of rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
For a young baby girl suffering from tonsillitis with fever symptoms, we can provide some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for treatment. At the same time, for regional treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication irrigation. If the child mainly exhibits symptoms of throat pain, parents are advised to use painkillers in moderation to relieve pain. For fever, choose cooling methods based on body temperature. When the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling can be performed; when the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral antipyretic drugs can be taken. In addition to the above treatment methods, if the child repeatedly experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, pay attention to staying warm and avoid exacerbating symptoms with a cold.
