Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water made her throat hurt. She found that her cough seemed to be quite severe as well, and it seemed like her low-grade fever had not gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with sore throat be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first, you can use some symptomatic antibiotic medications. You can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injections, etc., which are all good options. If the sore throat is severe, you can appropriately give some pain relievers. If the child has persistent fever, use antipyretics in a timely manner. If the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can use physical cooling methods. If there is a condition of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Finally, it is hoped that parents can pay attention to this disease and take the child to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Also, pay attention to doing well in related prevention and health care work during daily life.
