Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 3 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water. He also had severe coughing and a slightly persistent fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in young children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be given appropriately. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can be combined. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral fever-reducing drugs can be administered. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar cases occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and a liquid diet should be the main focus during treatment.
