How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 7 years old, just started. She says her throat hurts even when she drinks water, and she found that her cough seems to be more severe as well. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in the child be treated.

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Local rinsing or local spraying can also be used, and symptomatic medication can be injected into the tonsils. The efficacy of these methods is quite good. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has a fever, they can take some fever-reducing medication. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can also choose surgery under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. During the treatment period, it is mainly important to keep the child warm and avoid further aggravating the symptoms by catching a cold.
