Patient's question:
My son is 4 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can we treat his tonsillitis and the crying?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. They can also combine it with some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all good options. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help them recover from the illness as soon as possible.
