Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 9 months old, just starting, says his throat hurts even when drinking water, notices that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and has been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussiness be diagnosed and treated?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. While systemic treatment is administered, local therapies can also be chosen to enhance efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be administered orally. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children with recurrent episodes. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
