Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 7 months old. At first, he said it hurt to swallow things, and then it was discovered that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a slight fever and wasn't very energetic. Please ask: How can you effectively treat severe tonsillitis in young children?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. Local irrigation or topical sprays can also be used. Symptomatic medications can be injected into the tonsils, and the efficacy is also quite good. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
