Patient's question:
Female baby, only 8 months old. At first, she said that even drinking water made her throat hurt. She noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and she had been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How can the inflammation and swelling of the child's tonsils be treated effectively?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. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be administered. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral fever-reducing drugs can be taken. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, it is important to keep the child warm to prevent further worsening of symptoms due to cold exposure.
