Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of swollen tonsils along with high fever which seems to be due to bacterial infection and inflammation of tonsils. Need not to panic about it. I would suggest you to
1) Take hot milk with a pinch of turmeric boiled with it at bed time.
2) Mainatin hygiene of oral cavity.
3) Avoid spicy and rough food. Take diet rich in soft food.
4) Sip on lukewarm water and take throat lozenges.
5) Take Calpol or paracetamol for relief as well as it will relieve throat pain and take antibiotic course along with this.
If symptoms keeps on persisting visit pediatrician once and get it examined. Maintain oral hygiene. Take proper course of antibiotics. Get blood tests done if required.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
