Treatment for painful tonsillitis in young children

Patient's question:

My little girl, who is 7 years old, initially said she had a sore throat. It was found that she also had mild coughing, and at the same time, it seemed like a low fever that never subsided. Please ask: How should the treatment be for children's tonsillitis, which is very painful.

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, and local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. During this period, ensure your child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
