Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 2 months old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and she noticed that her cough was quite severe. At the same time, it seems like her low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated effectively in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, or local treatments can be applied, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injections. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be administered. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. Lastly, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
