How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying be treated?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 4 years old, just starting out. When speaking, she feels a sore throat, notices it, and her voice is a bit hoarse. At the same time, she has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussing be treated.

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. Local treatment methods can also be combined, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are all effective. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
