How to diagnose and treat crying in children with tonsillitis

Patient's question:

Boy, just turned 6 months old, just starting, says his throat hurts even when drinking water, found that his voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and at the same time, he has now high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussiness be diagnosed and treated.

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. If the child still has a slight fever, fever reduction should be considered accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, prompt medical attention is necessary.
In addition to these medication-based treatments, if a child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult a doctor and consider surgical treatment under medical supervision. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
