Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 months old. At first, it was said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. She noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low fever in young children be diagnosed and treated?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all quite effective. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to give some pain relievers based on the situation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case you can give them oral fever-reducing medication. If this does not alleviate the symptoms, it is essential to seek medical attention. In addition to these medication-based treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can also consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
