Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. She noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussing be diagnosed and treated?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture, local rinsing, or local spraying. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic relief, all of which are effective. If the child's primary symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention by taking the child to the hospital. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider surgery at an early stage. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
