Patient's question:
My little girl, she's one year old. At first, when she spoke, she felt a sore throat. Then, I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and she had been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: If the child's tonsillitis is very painful, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, and can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injection of drugs, etc., which are all good options. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the drug efficacy is poor and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Pay attention to a light diet, and during treatment, a liquid diet should be primarily consumed.
