Patient's question:
My son is 4 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How can we treat pediatric tonsillitis effectively if it is very painful?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. If there are recurrent inflammation cases, surgical treatment can be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to avoid catching colds and triggering recurrent tonsillitis.
