Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 3 months old. At first, he felt a sore throat when talking, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should we treat the crying caused by tonsillitis in the child for effective results?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as appropriate. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. If there is a fever, the method of fever reduction should be chosen based on the temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics can be administered. If the drug efficacy is poor and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early medical treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
