Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found that accompanied by mild cough, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How to treat crying and fussing in children with tonsillitis.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the therapeutic effect. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. Additionally, if there is a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. During the treatment period, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
