Patient's question:
My daughter is 7 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. Later, it was found that her cough is quite severe, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and sore throat in children.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 or intratonsillar medication, which are all effective. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early medical treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
