Patient's question:
Boy, 9 years old, has started elementary school. At first, he said it hurts when he swallows. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks, and he has had a slight fever all along. Question: How should pharyngitis in children be treated for sore throat?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injections can also be used. Pain relievers can be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is intense, to help alleviate the suffering. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take the child to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
