How should a child with tonsillitis and pain be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned one month old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when drinking water. He noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, and he had a slight fever and wasn't energetic. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in the child be treated for the best effect?

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotic drugs are currently commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as appropriate. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover more quickly.
