Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing. Additionally, she had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: How should we treat a child's tonsillitis effectively when they are crying?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. While taking the medication, they can also undergo some local treatments, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain relievers can be given as needed. Additionally, if there is a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
