Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat. It was also discovered that her cough seemed quite severe, and she had been slightly feverish for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated for pain?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain relievers are recommended to alleviate the symptoms. Additionally, if the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be considered. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
