How to treat painful tonsillitis in young children well

Patient's question:

Female baby, only 2 months old, just starting, saying her throat hurts, found that coughing seems to be quite severe too, and she has a slight fever and lacks energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in young children be treated if it is very painful?

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medication may be considered. If the child also has a fever, appropriate fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, parents should take this disease seriously, bring their child to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
