Patient's question:
Our child is a boy, 1 year old. At first, he felt a sore throat when talking and discovered that he had a rather severe cough. Additionally, he had a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intra-tonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child also has a fever, fever-reducing drugs can be administered. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this condition seriously, bring their child to the doctor for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
