Patient's question:
My little girl is one year old. At first, it was said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. She was noticed to have a slightly hoarse voice when speaking. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated well.Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. For sore throat, pain relievers can be used for the child. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is suggested. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
