Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when drinking water. He also had mild coughing. Additionally, it seems like he hasn't recovered from a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat pediatric tonsillitis when it's uncomfortable?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. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If a child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
