Patient's question:
My male child, who is 2 years old, started experiencing a sore throat when speaking. I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like a low-grade fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How can I effectively treat tonsillitis that is very painful in children?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. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. 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 schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
