Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 7 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis pain in my child?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can also be used. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child still has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken on a case-by-case basis. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
