Patient's question:
Boy, he is already one year old. At first, he had a slight sore throat, and noticed that his cough was quite severe. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. Pain relievers can also be given to children, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, it's important to maintain a light diet, and a liquid diet should be prioritized.
