Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old, just started, says even drinking water makes her throat hurt, found accompanied by mild cough, and now has high fever that won't break. Please ask: How should pharyngitis be treated in children who feel uncomfortable.Doctor's answer:
For treatment, one can first administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication is recommended. For children with pronounced sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child also has low fever, physical cooling measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is advised. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
