Patient's question:
My son is 3 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and he also has a low fever. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and it hurts, how should it be treated well.Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, parents can consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the symptoms do not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children who experience recurrent episodes. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further aggravating the symptoms by catching a cold.
