Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat, and she noticed it accompanied by mild coughing. Also, it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should the discomfort of pediatric tonsillitis be treated.Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, or use local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, you may consider giving pain-relieving medication. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be chosen based on the body temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used; if it is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral antipyretics can be taken. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
