Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 3 months old. At first, he said his throat felt sore even when drinking water. He noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when talking, and he also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How can we effectively treat pediatric tonsillitis when the baby is crying and fussing?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to provide pain relief medication based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical intervention may be considered. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage appropriate exercise to boost the child's immunity and prevent recurrence.
