Patient's question:
My little girl is 7 years old. At first, she said her throat hurt. We noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: If a child's tonsillitis is very painful, how should it be treated.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While taking medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's throat pain is severe, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. If the child still has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is preferred.
