Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 5 months old, just started, said swallowing hurts, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, also, seems like a low fever that hasn't gone away, please ask: How should the tonsil inflammation of the child be treated if it is very painful.Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injections. Pain relievers can be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
