How to Treat Childhood Tonsillitis and Sore Throat

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned 2 months old, just started, said swallowing hurts, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, accompanied by low fever, please ask: How should tonsillitis pharyngalgia be treated in children.

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their children anti-inflammatory medications. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injections. When necessary, such as when the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be administered. Additionally, if the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
