Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat. She also noticed that her cough seemed quite severe, and she had been slightly feverish for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms, or local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can be used. Pain relievers can also be administered according to the child's condition, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is recommended.
