Patient's question:
My little girl is 3 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. She also had mild coughing and a slightly fever with no energy. Please ask: How to treat pediatric tonsillitis pain?Doctor's answer:
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication can also be used. Pain relievers can be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is intense, to help alleviate discomfort. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If this does not provide relief, medical attention must be sought. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
