Patient's question:
Baby girl, currently 4 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. She noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and she also has a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis be treated if it is difficult to heal in children?Doctor's answer:
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered, local flushing or topical spraying can also be used. Medications can be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which are quite effective. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, analgesics can be considered. If the child has persistent fever, fever-reducing medications can be taken orally. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet primarily consisting of light meals. Rest and avoiding fatigue should also be noted.
