Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 2 months old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat. She was also found to have severe coughing, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How can you effectively treat severe pediatric tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. For local treatment, it is recommended to opt for laser therapy or medication rinsing. If a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be selected according to the body temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
