Patient's question:
My little girl is 1 year old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed something. I noticed her coughing quite severely and she had been slightly feverish all the time. Could you please advise: How can we effectively treat pharyngitis with fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be given appropriately. For local treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication rinsing. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be provided. If a child has fever symptoms, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatments, if a child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult a doctor and consider surgery for treatment. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent colds and the recurrence of tonsil inflammation.
