How to Treat Crying in Children with Tonsillitis

Patient's question:

My little girl is 4 years old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed something. I noticed that her cough seemed to be more severe as well, and she also had a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat a child's tonsillitis when they are crying and agitated?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
