Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 4 months old, just starting, feels a sore throat when talking, notices it, swallowing seems a bit difficult, and has been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated for the best effect in children?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotics. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture results, which have shown good efficacy. While systemic treatment is administered, local therapies can also be chosen to enhance the therapeutic effect. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate analgesics can be administered. For children with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to these pharmacological treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a balanced diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
