Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. It was found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated properly.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments such as rinsing or direct application of medication can also be performed to enhance the therapeutic effect. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications should be administered. In severe cases, prompt medical attention is necessary. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, with a focus on liquid foods.
