Patient's question:
My child is a male baby, 2 years old. At first, he felt pain even when drinking water, and it was noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, he had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, topical drug sprays or laser treatment can be applied. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
