Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when talking and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. At the same time, it seems like he has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms, and can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections, which are all good options. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents can consider giving some pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretics should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. All of the above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
