Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 7 months old, just started, said it hurts when swallowing, found that coughing seems to be more severe too, and has had a slight fever for a while. Question: How should tonsillitis in children be diagnosed and treated when it's uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given, and some local treatment methods can also be combined. For example, tonsillar crypt irrigation and intratonsillar drug injection are all good options. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also give fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider early surgery. In daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be followed during treatment.
