Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 2 months old, just starting to say that swallowing is painful. It was found that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and it seems like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should the crying caused by tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections can be used in combination. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given according to the situation. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods should be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods. Additionally, sufficient rest should be ensured to avoid fatigue.
