How to treat a child's sore throat effectively when they are crying and upset

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 3 years old, just starting, feels sore throat when speaking, found that cough seems to be more severe as well, and has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How can the child's tonsillitis with crying and fussing be treated effectively.

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local rinsing or topical spraying can also be used, and symptomatic medication can be injected into the tonsils. All these methods are quite effective. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed accordingly. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. While treating, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help with early recovery.
