Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 6 months old. At first, he said it hurt to swallow things, and it was noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. At the same time, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should the tonsillitis be treated when the child is uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, and local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, analgesic medications can be used. If a child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be administered orally. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children with recurrent episodes. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early medical treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
