Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 1 year old. At first, when speaking, she felt a sore throat. She noticed that her cough seemed to be more severe as well, and she had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: How should a sore tonsil be treated?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can also be used, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injections, etc. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be given. If it cannot be relieved, medical attention must be sought. The above are common treatment methods, but 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, enhance nutritional supplementation, and help them recover as soon as possible.
