Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 5 months old. At first, she had a slight sore throat. She noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke, and she also had a slight fever and wasn't very energetic. Please ask: How to treat the child's very painful tonsillitis.Doctor's answer:
For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given based on the child's symptoms, or local medications can be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretics should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. Parents should also pay attention to keeping the child warm to prevent catching a cold and triggering recurrent tonsillitis.
