Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 months old. At first, she felt pain in her throat even when drinking water. She was also found to have severe coughing. Additionally, she had been slightly feverish. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pharyngalgia in children be treated properly.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered, and local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, and laser therapy can also be performed. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. Additionally, surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children with recurrent episodes. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods. Rest should also be emphasized to avoid fatigue.
