Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 months old. At first, she said even drinking water made her throat hurt. She noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Additionally, she had a slight fever and wasn't feeling well. Please ask: How can the child's tonsillitis be treated effectively when she is feeling uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed appropriately, and if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, emergency medical attention is necessary. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
