Patient's question:
Baby girl, only one month old. At first, she said her throat was sore, and it was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Additionally, she has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis. They can be selected as needed. While systemic treatment is administered, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance efficacy, including crypt irrigation and direct injection of medication into the tonsils. If a child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods should be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If a child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery early. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods. Additionally, sufficient rest should be ensured to avoid fatigue.
