Patient's question:
Female baby, only 2 months old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed something. She noticed that her cough was quite severe. Additionally, she had been slightly feverish. Please ask: How can the pain of tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local medications can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, it is advisable to follow a light diet and primarily consume liquid foods.
