Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat. She noticed that her cough was quite severe, and it seemed like her low-grade fever never subsided. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in children be treated.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatments can also be selected to enhance efficacy. These methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child's fever persists, antipyretic medication can be administered orally. For cases with multiple acute severe episodes or existing complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and supplement nutrients to aid in early recovery.
