Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 4 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, noticed it, coughed more severely, and also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should pharyngitis in young children be treated if it is very painful.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser treatment can be applied. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child still has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their child warm to prevent catching a cold and triggering a recurrence of tonsillitis.
