Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old. At first, he felt sore throat even when drinking water, and found mild cough. Now, he has high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How to treat red and swollen tonsils in young children.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the sore throat is severe, pain relievers can be given. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost the immune system and prevent recurrence.
