Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old, just starting, saying it hurts to swallow things, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and slightly feverish with no energy. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with tonsillitis and sore throat be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be applied. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. For cases with multiple acute severe episodes or those with complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Finally, it is hoped that parents can pay attention to this disease and take their children to the hospital for early medical treatment. Additionally, proper prevention and health care measures should be taken in daily life.
