Patient's question:

Boy, he is already 8 years old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing. Meanwhile, he now has high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should the crying of a child with tonsillitis be treated.

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. If a child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to provide pain relief medication based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be administered. Besides these drug treatments, if a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their child to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
