How should children with tonsillitis be treated when they are crying?

Patient's question:

My son is 7 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and it was found that his cough was also quite severe. At the same time, he had been a little feverish. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussing be treated.

Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, parents are advised to consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child also has a fever, it is advisable to take fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring the child to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
