How to treat pediatric tonsillitis effectively when it is difficult to respond

Patient's question:

Boy, 10 years old, has started primary school. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered that his cough was quite severe. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't break. Question: How should pharyngitis in children be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child still has a slight fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
