Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 8 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and discovered that it was accompanied by a mild cough, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How can the inflammation of the child's tonsils be effectively treated.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the therapeutic effect. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If the child also has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. During the treatment period, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
