Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old, just started saying his throat hurts. Noticing it, accompanied by mild cough, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pharyngalgia be treated in children.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. While taking medication, local treatments such as rinsing or direct application of medication can also be performed to enhance efficacy. Pain relievers can be given to children, especially when throat pain is severe, to alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, antipyretic medication can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional support to aid in early recovery.
