Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old. At first, she said she had pain when swallowing, and it was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when speaking. Additionally, it seems like she has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics may be given. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be administered orally.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. During treatment, it is important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help with early recovery.
