Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old, just started, feels sore throat even when drinking water, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough, and slightly feverish and lacking energy, please ask: How should sore tonsils in children be treated for good results.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis first involves parents giving their child some anti-inflammatory medication. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as irrigation or direct medication, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's throat is particularly painful, appropriate analgesics can be given. For persistent fever, antipyretic drugs should be used promptly. If the temperature is below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be applied. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or the presence of complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child follows a light diet and receives adequate nutritional support to aid early recovery.
