Patient's question:
Boys, who are already 9 years old, have just begun to say that they feel pain when swallowing. It was found that swallowing seems to be a bit difficult. At the same time, they now have a high fever that does not go down. Please ask: How to treat the crying and fussing of children with tonsillitis.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases,antibiotic medications can be given to children, or local rinsing or local spraying can be performed. Antibiotic medications can also be injected into the tonsils, and the efficacy is quite good. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. Additionally, if fever is present, fever-reducing medications can be taken. However, for high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to avoid catching a cold and triggering recurrent tonsil inflammation.
