Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat, noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussing be treated.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While taking medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as rinsing or direct medication, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child still has a fever, antipyretics can be used as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. But if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods, and to get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
