Patient's question:
Boy, 11 years old, in elementary school. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was noticed that his cough seems to be more severe as well. Currently, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children, which is very painful, be treated properly.Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, they can first use some symptomatic antibiotics. For local treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medicinal irrigation. In case of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. Additionally, if fever is present, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are repeated acute severe cases or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides.，。
