Patient's question:
Boy, already 5 years old, at first, he said it hurts when he swallows things. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should pharyngitis tonsillitis in young children be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as irrigation or direct application of medication, to enhance the therapeutic effect. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. Additionally, if a fever is present, fever-reducing medications can be administered. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is advised two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
