Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old, just starting, feels sore throat when speaking, notices, coughs more severely, and also has low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated effectively if it is very painful.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. Additionally, topical medications in the form of sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the child experiences significant throat pain, appropriate pain-relieving medications may be given. Persistent fever can be managed with oral antipyretics. Tonsillitis is known for its recurrent nature, and if similar episodes occur, surgery may be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is essential to ensure the child stays warm to prevent exacerbation of symptoms due to cold exposure.
