Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned one month old, just started, said swallowing hurts, found, accompanied by mild cough, and has had a slight fever for a while, please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat be treated in children.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. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be used as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
