Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 months old, just started, said it hurts when swallowing, noticed, coughing is quite severe, and has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should tonsil inflammation and redness be treated in the child?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered, or local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can be used. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child has a light diet and adequate nutritional support to help them recover as soon as possible.
