Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 months old, just started, a little sore in the throat, found that his voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's throat is very painful, you can also give some pain-relieving medication as appropriate. If the child has a persistent fever, parents should administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, it is recommended to perform a tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further symptoms from worsening due to cold exposure.
