How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 3 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts, and I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. At the same time, he has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in children 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. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretics should be used promptly. For fever below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be applied. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
