How to diagnose and treat tonsillitis pain in young children

Patient's question:

Girl baby, only 6 months old. At first, she said her throat hurts. Noticing that, her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks. Also, she has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in young children be diagnosed and treated.

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, or opt for local rinsing or topical sprays. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for targeted treatment, all of which have good efficacy. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. If the child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, oral fever-reducing drugs can be administered. If medication efficacy is poor and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
