Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he said it hurt when he swallowed, and it was found that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis that is very painful in the child be diagnosed and treated.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. 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. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
