Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 4 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. She noticed that her cough is quite severe and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: If the child's tonsils are inflamed and very painful, what treatment is most effective?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. If the child also has a fever, they may take fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. These are relatively common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider surgery at an early stage. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
