Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old, just starting. She says her throat hurts even when drinking water. She also has mild coughing and low fever. Please ask: How should acute tonsillitis be treated when it is very painful in young children?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. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is advisable to administer pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
