Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 8 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and then it was discovered that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated if it is very painful.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis, and can be selected as appropriate. They can also be combined with some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections, which are all effective. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
