How to treat red and swollen tonsillitis in children for the best effect

Patient's question:

My male baby is 1 year old. At first, he said it hurts when he swallows something, and it was found that his cough is quite severe. At the same time, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can the inflammation and swelling of the child's tonsils be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. While taking medication, you can also perform some local treatments, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, to enhance the therapeutic effect. In cases of sore throat, you can also give children pain relievers. If the child still has a fever, it is advisable to consider fever reduction measures. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
