Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when he drank water. He also had severe coughing and seemed to have a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis pain 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, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all quite effective. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medications can be administered. If the symptoms do not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
