Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 9 months old, just starting out. When she talks, she feels a sore throat, notices it, accompanied by mild coughing, and also has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and sore throat in children.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 based on symptoms, and can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are all good options. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving some pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medications can be taken orally. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar situations occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
