Patient's question:
My son is 2 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and it was discovered that his cough seemed to be quite severe as well. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should the crying of a child with tonsillitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. Surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children with recurrent episodes. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
