Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old, at the beginning, felt sore throat even when drinking water, noticed it accompanied by mild cough, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis pharyngalgia in young children.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery may be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
