Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old, just starting, a little sore in the throat, noticed it, cough seems to be more severe as well, and a bit feverish with no energy. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and it hurts very much, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, or opt for local rinsing or topical sprays. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for targeted treatment, all of which have good efficacy. Pain relievers can be given to children based on their condition, especially when throat pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If a child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. After recovery, it is recommended to encourage appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
