How to treat a child's sore throat and crying

Patient's question:

Female baby, only 7 months old, just started, said her throat hurts, noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when she talks. Also, it seems like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: If the child's tonsils are inflamed and crying, how should it be treated.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which is quite effective. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or direct medication, to enhance the therapeutic effect. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. Some children may also have fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought.
In addition to these drug treatments, if a child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as early as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
