Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old, just started, a little sore throat, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat if the child's tonsils are inflamed and uncomfortable.Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also undergo local treatments, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If a child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to provide pain-relieving medication based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever, fever-reducing medication should be used in a timely manner. For fever below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be applied. In addition to these medication treatments, if a child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their child warm to prevent catching a cold due to chilling, which could trigger recurrent tonsillitis.
