How to treat crying and fussing in young children with tonsillitis

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 3 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Meanwhile, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should we treat crying and fussing in infants with tonsillitis?

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injections can also be used. When necessary, such as when the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is required. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
