Patient's question:
My male baby is 2 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Meanwhile, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can tonsillitis with redness and swelling in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. When necessary, such as when the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider early surgery. In daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and during treatment, a liquid diet is recommended.
