How to treat infant tonsillitis pain

Patient's question:

My child is a boy, 1 year old. He just started saying that he has pain when swallowing, and I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Additionally, he has a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in young children be treated.

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, or local treatments can be applied, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. Additionally, if there is a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery early. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
