Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 months old. He just started, says his throat hurts even when he drinks water, notices it accompanied by mild coughing, and has had a slightly feverish feeling all along. Please ask: If children's tonsillitis is uncomfortable, how should it be treated.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. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or medication injections can be used in conjunction. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can also be given as needed. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If the symptoms do not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. If your child frequently experiences this, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. While being treated, it is also important to ensure the child has a light diet and adequate nutritional support to help them recover as soon as possible.
