Patient's question:
Female baby, only 1 month old, just started, feels sore throat even when drinking water, noticed that cough seems to be more severe, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How to treat swollen and red tonsillitis in children well.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments such as rinsing and direct topical application can also be used to enhance efficacy. In cases of sore throat, children can be given pain relievers. If the child still has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication under advice. However, if the fever persists, medical attention must be sought promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgery is recommended at an early stage. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
