Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 8 years old. At first, she said it hurts when swallowing things. It was found that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and she has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in young children be treated effectively if it is very painful.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 undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If the symptoms do not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
