Patient's question:
My son is 5 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. Later, he was found to have a slightly hoarse voice when speaking, and he had been running a low fever. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis pain be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all good options. When necessary, such as when a child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can also be given. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs should be used promptly. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees Celsius. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage your child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
