Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 2 months old, just starting, a little sore in the throat. Found that coughing seems to be quite severe, and it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away either. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis pain be treated.Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child has a severe sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, fever-reducing medication can be administered orally. For cases with multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
