Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old, just starting, feels a sore throat when talking, found, accompanied by mild cough, and slightly fever, no energy, please ask: How to treat pharyngitis and tonsillitis in young children for a sore throat.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a fever, it should be managed appropriately, and if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. For cases with multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. While undergoing treatment, it is important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional support to aid in early recovery.
