Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and fever, how should it be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotic medications. Sensitive drugs can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. The above are common treatment methods. However, if a child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgical intervention at an early stage. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be primarily followed during the treatment period.
