Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, he has had a low-grade fever. Please ask: How should pharyngeal tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated in young children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered, and they can be combined with local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are all effective. When necessary, such as when a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can also be given. If accompanied by low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
