Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 3 months old, just started. She says drinking water makes her throat hurt, and she noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Also, her high fever hasn't gone down yet. Please ask: If a child's tonsillitis is very painful, how should it be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it's pediatric tonsillitis, treatment can be given to the child with some antibiotics, which is quite effective. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. In cases of sore throat, pain relief medication can also be used for the child. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can give fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, it is recommended to perform a tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Finally, it is hoped that parents can pay attention to this disease and take the child to the hospital for treatment as early as possible. Also, proper prevention and health care measures should be taken regularly.
