Patient's question:
My son is 4 years old. At first, he said it hurt to swallow things, and I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. He also had a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated?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 undergo local treatments, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, you may consider giving pain-relieving medications. If accompanied by low fever, you can use physical cooling methods. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for your child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help with early recovery.
