Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. He also had a low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children with crying and fussiness be diagnosed and treated?Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be used, including tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If the child also has a fever, appropriate fever reduction measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, parents should take this disease seriously, take their child to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
