Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 months old, just starting to say swallowing hurts. It was found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated if it is very painful.Doctor's answer:
Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments can also be used, including tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections. If the child has a sore throat, pain relievers can be given as needed. Additionally, if the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
