Patient's question:
My little girl is 6 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and she noticed that her cough was quite severe. Now, she still has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should we treat her tonsillitis effectively if it's very painful?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injection drugs, which are all good options. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods, but if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring sufficient rest time.
