Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 2 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that his cough seemed to be more severe as well. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can the swollen and red tonsils of the child be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to these medication-based treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult with a doctor and consider surgical treatment under medical supervision. During the treatment period, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
