Question

Dear parents, my daughter is only 8 months old. Initially, she complained of pain when swallowing, and I noticed that her coughing seems more severe. She has also had a slight fever. How should we treat her tonsillitis with high fever effectively?

Answer

When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications. You can also perform local rinsing or spraying, or inject symptomatic drugs into the tonsils, which are all effective treatments. When necessary, such as when the child’s sore throat is particularly severe, you can also give some painkillers. If the child still has a fever, you can take some antipyretic drugs as appropriate. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult with a doctor to consider surgical treatment. During this period, make sure the child gets plenty of rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
