Patient's question:
Female baby, only 6 months old, just started, saying her throat hurts, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying be treated.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be administered. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also give fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child stays warm to prevent further worsening of symptoms due to cold exposure.
