Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed mild coughing, accompanied by low fever. Question: How should pharyngitis and tonsillitis in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. If the child has a persistent fever, parents should administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further symptoms from worsening due to cold exposure.
