How should pediatric tonsillitis and sore throat be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

Female baby, only 7 months old. At first, she said her throat hurts. It was found that she also has a mild cough, and she has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pharyngalgia in children be treated for the best effect?

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be used. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. These are all common treatment methods. However, if a child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the doctor for treatment as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
