How to treat tonsillitis effectively when children feel uncomfortable

Patient's question:

Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, his throat felt a bit sore, and he noticed it was accompanied by mild coughing. Additionally, it seems like his low-grade fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How can the child's tonsillitis be treated effectively if he is feeling uncomfortable?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, first of all, you can use some symptomatic antibiotic drugs. Local irrigation or local spraying can also be used. Symptomatic drugs can also be injected into the tonsils, and the efficacy is quite good. If the child's throat pain is severe, you can also give some analgesic drugs accordingly. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also give some fever-reducing drugs, or take the child to the hospital immediately. If your child often has this condition, then after the condition is controlled, surgical treatment can be considered to avoid recurrence. During the treatment period, it is also important to pay attention to maintaining dietary hygiene and getting enough rest.
