Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned one month old. At first, he said it was painful to swallow things. It was found that his cough seemed to be quite severe as well, and he also had a low fever. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture, local rinsing, or local spraying. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic relief, all of which are effective. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. If the child also has a fever, appropriate fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgery under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
